[DMANET] Seeking PhD student in similarity search at ITU Copenhagen

The Scalable Similarity Search project (http://sss.projects.itu.dk) is seeking a talented PhD student with a strong background in algorithms theory, mathematics, or statistics, to be supervised by professor Rasmus Pagh.

The project is funded by the European Research Council (ERC), runs in the years 2014-19, and will include a total of 3 PhD and 3 post-doc positions. The aim of the project is to improve theory and practice of algorithms for high-dimensional similarity search, and to extend similarity search algorithms to work in settings where data is distributed (using a communication complexity perspective) or uncertain (using a statistical perspective). The ideal candidate will have proven his/her talent for research through an outstanding thesis, or by publishing in reputable international conferences or journals.

The proposed starting date is February 1, 2015.
