[DMANET] Position for a PhD student at Einstein-Center ecmath, TU Berlin

Position for a PhD student in mathematics at Einstein-Center ecmath,
TU Berlin.

CH3: "Multiview geometry for ophthalmic surgery simulation"

Epipolar geometry provides a mathematical approach to modelling
machine visions via several cameras. The project's goal is to analyze
epipolar geometry with methods from computer algebra and algberaic
geometry (e.g., Groebner bases). In addition to studying the theory
we wish to examine aspects of the subject which occur in real-world
applications, even under real-time conditions. This includes medical
applications, in particular, related to the simulation of eye surgery.

Applications should be acquainted with at least one of the following
fields: computational geometry, computer algebra, algebraic geometry.

Applications should have a degree as a Master of Science in
mathematics (or equivalent). It is expected that the applicant works
towards a PhD thesis in mathematics on the project, as a member of the
group on Discrete Mathematics/Geometry at TU Berlin; see

http://www.math.tu-berlin.de/fachgebiete_ag_diskalg/fg_diskrete_mathematik_geometrie/

The project will start on June 1, 2014 to end on May 31, 2017.
Application deadline: February 20, 2014.

for details concerning the application procedure.
