[DMANET] AI Postdoc position on integrating learning and reasoning at Linköping University, Sweden

Dear all,
I am looking for a postdoc to do research with me on integrating
learning and reasoning. Integrating learning and reasoning constitutes
one of the key open questions in AI. Integrated approaches to learning
and reasoning potentially address many of the shortcomings of
contemporary AI approaches, including the black-box nature and the
brittleness of deep learning, and the difficulty to adapt knowledge
representation models in the light of new data. [Directly from the Call
for Papers of the 1st International Joint Conference on Learning &
Reasoning (IJCLR 2020)]

We are especially interested in people with a strong ML background who
are curious about extending these techniques by leveraging ideas from
reasoning/logic-based approaches for example learning causal structures,
statistical-relational learning, and neuro-symbolic computing. The
position is primarily funded through a Knut and Alice Wallenberg grant.

The last day to apply is January 13th (could be extended if need be).

Please spread!

Thanks,
Fredrik
