欧洲招聘网（http://job.ouzhou.cc）2023年8月招聘资讯： 截止申请日期为2023年8月27日。

The Robot Learning research group is seeking a talented PhD student with strong interest in Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning and Planning.

The Aalto Robot Learning research group operates in the intersection of artificial intelligence and robotics. We focus on developing methods for reinforcement learning, robotic manipulation, decision making under partial observability, imitation learning, and decision making in multi-agent systems. The goal of the research group is to help robots understand what they need to learn to perform their assigned tasks, and, thus, make robots capable of operating on their own and pro-actively help humans. To accomplish these goals the research group develops novel decision-making methods and uses these methods to solve unsolved robotic tasks. For more information, please see https://rl.aalto.fi.

The main task of the PhD student will be to develop new machine learning methods for optimizing multi-agent behavior. The developed methods may be based on one of our focus areas including, but not limited to, reinforcement learning and planning under uncertainty. Example research topics include but are not limited to multi-agent curriculum learning, model-based multi-agent reinforcement learning, and multi-agent planning and control. The developed methods may be evaluated with real robots. The exact direction of the research is chosen depending on your experience and interests. Please relate clearly to some of the research topics in your Letter of Motivation.

Outstanding researchers from the areas of Machine Learning, AI, Robotics, and related areas including Reinforcement Learning, Control Engineering, Computer Vision, Statistics & Optimization, or Mathematics & Physics are welcome to apply. The candidate is expected to conduct independent research and at the same time contribute to the topics listed above. Successful candidates will be furthermore given the opportunity to work with undergraduate and M.Sc. students.

The research group collaborates internationally and nationally with research groups in construction, computer vision, robotics, mobile heavy machines, human-robot interaction, reinforcement learning, imitation learning, multi-agent systems, under-water vehicles, and robot motion planning. There will be ample opportunities for international collaboration.

WE OFFER

The position will be filled for 2 + 2 years (doctoral studies are expected to take 4 years in total). The starting date is in September 2023 or as mutually agreed. The salary will be based on both the job requirements and the employee’s personal performance in accordance with the salary system of Finnish universities. The starting salary for a doctoral student is approximately 2600 EUR/month and increases with thesis progress.

We offer a wide range of staff benefits, such as occupational health care, flexible working hours, excellent sports facilities on campus and several restaurants and cafés on campus with staff discounts. The position is located at the Aalto University Otaniemi campus which can be easily reached by public transport.
