[Comp-neuro] Research assistant positions, Imperial College London, Machine Learning for Human-Robot Interaction

Dear colleagues, 

Three research assistant positions in machine learning and user-modelling for human-robot Interaction are available at the Personal Robotics Laboratory of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Imperial College London. Successful applicants will work under the supervision of Dr Yiannis Demiris (www.demiris.info) in the context of the EU FP7 project ALIZ-E (www.aliz-e.org), which aims to develop intelligent robotic systems to assist children and their caregivers in children hospital environments.  The positions offer an excellent working environment in one of the world's top research universities, and are available until the end of the project in September 2014.

Applicants should have an excellent background in mathematics and software engineering, and should be committed to applying their research to real robotic systems interacting with people in challenging environments. 

Application deadline: 9 Dec 2012 - for further information and links to application material:
