[DMANET] PhD position in TDA at Swansea University

Dear all,

as part of the major Oxford-Swansea-Liverpool Centre for Topological
Data Analysis (funded by EPSRC grant EP/R018472/1), we are looking for
a PhD student to join the Swansea team (consisting of 5 permanent core
members and multiple postdocs and PhD students) in investigating
applications of topology to data science and physics.

The precise focus of this project will be to develop and implement new
computational topology methods for a diverse range of data-analysis
problems, driven by challenges from biomedical science, economics, and
physics. Principal tools will include persistent homology, Mapper /
Ball Mapper, and Hodge theory on graphs. The project will involve a
mixture of theoretical and computational work (both using existing
tools, and writing new code).

The successful applicant will work within the Computational Foundry
and will be a part of the Swansea Science Doctoral Training Centre and
have access to an array of training and networking opportunities
through two Centres for Doctoral Training that we host.

For more information including deadline, starting date, and salary,
please see the official posting:

Informal enquiries are very welcome. Please email either
j.h.giansiracusa@swansea.ac.uk or yue.ren@mis.mpg.de

best regards, Yue Ren.
