At TU Dresden, the Chair of Machine Learning for Computer Vision invites
applications for a

PhD or Postdoc Position: Discrete Optimization for Machine Learning and
Image Analysis

Salary level: TV-L E13, 100%

Tasks:
- Curiosity-driven basic research of fundamental mathematical
optimization problems in the fields of machine learning and image analysis
- Design and analysis of algorithms for solving these problems, exactly
or approximatively
- Implementation, empirical analysis and comparison of these algorithms
with respect to real data
- Publication of findings and insights in internationally leading
conferences and journals
- Strong contributions to teaching in English in the Masters' Program
Computational Modeling and Simulation, esp. by the design and
co-supervision of exercise groups and tutorials and, for postdocs with
sufficient teaching experience, by own lectures

Requirements:
- A very good university degree in mathematics or computer science or a
related discipline
- Comprehensive education in mathematics, especially in discrete
mathematics and one area of mathematical optimization (e.g. Mathematical
Programming, Convex Optimization)
- Curiosity and strong interest in rigorous mathematical methods
- Very good programming skills in C++
- Very good scientific writing skills in English. (Knowledge of German
is not required for this position).
