[DMANET] TU Delft PhD Position in Computer Science on Algorithms for Planning and Monitoring for Reliable Automation

PhD Position in Computer Science on Algorithms for Planning and Monitoring for Reliable Automation
The main difference between offline design and online deployment of automation is that the real world can exhibit changes not accounted for in a simulated environment. The challenge of this project is to develop novel methodology and algorithms to detect when replanning is necessary, and to resolve violations, possibly according to human feedback.
At Delft University of Technology, we are looking for a candidate to join the Algorithmics Group. As a PhD researcher, you will reinforce and extend the group's expertise in the interdisciplinary field combining real-time monitoring, planning under uncertainty, optimization, and machine learning. You will work in a dynamic and diverse environment of other PhD and postdoc researchers excited about making theoretical and algorithmic contributions in intelligent decision making. In addition, you will collaborate with experts at the Netherlands Railways and ProRail and four PhD students addressing other aspects of railway automation.
You will be supervised by Dr. Anna Lukina (https://annalukina.com/) and Prof.Dr. Mathijs de Weerdt (http://www.alg.ewi.tudelft.nl/weerdt/).
For more information about this vacancy, please see the link below or contact Dr. Anna Lukina.
Apply before January 9, 2024 (applications will be considered as they come in): PhD Position Computer Science on Algorithms for Planning and Monitoring for Reliable Automation<https://www.tudelft.nl/over-tu-delft/werken-bij-tu-delft/vacatures/details?jobId=15094&jobTitle=PhD%20Position%20Computer%20Science%20on%20Algorithms%20for%20Planning%20and%20Monitoring%20for%20Reliable%20Automation>.
