15, 2002.
1. Perception-Based Information Processing, Analysis and Decision Making
====================================================
Duties of Position: Develop models and software tool for information
processing and relevant decision analysis using fuzzy-based soft
computing techniques. Develop perception-based query and ranking model
for information retrieval (distributed-multimedia databases) and search
engines. Integrate the computational theory of perception into existing
search engines and distributed-multimedia databases.
Qualifications: The candidates will work in a multi-disciplinary
environment to develop new techniques based on fuzzy logic and soft
computing to add a competitive edge to Telecommunications, Internet, and
Bioinformatics applications. The position is suitable for candidates who
have demonstrate excellent track records in Soft Computing/ AI and
processing of uncertain large scale structured and unstructured
distributed databases/sparse matrix.
2. Perception-Based Reinforcement Learning Algorithms for Sensor Fusion,
Resource Allocation, and Decision Processing
==================================================================================
Duties of Positions: The position involves advanced research and
development leading to implementation in C++ of perception-based
reinforcement learning algorithms for sensor fusion, resource
allocation, and decision processing in a distributed and uncertain
environment. To program automatically a team of UAVs and autonomous
multi-agent system with a shared mission.
Qualifications: The candidates will work in a multi-disciplinary
environment to develop new techniques based on perception-based
reinforcement learning algorithms to add a competitive edge to UAVs and
autonomous multi-agent system applications. The position is suitable for
candidates who have demonstrated excellent track records in soft
computing/AI/reinforcement learning and UAVs/ autonomous multi-agent
system.
3. Fuzzy Partial Differential Equation Solver (FPDES) and Fuzzy
Simulations
====================================================
Duties of Positions: develop the next generation of PDE solver and
simulation models based on fuzzy logic and Computing with Words. The
project will include 1) state-of-the-art assessment of Fuzzy Partial
Differential Equations and fuzzy simulation, 2) the development and
foundation for Fuzzy-PDE solver, and 3) implementation of FPDE in
selected problem areas.
Qualifications: The candidates will work in a multi-disciplinary
environment to develop new techniques based on Computing with Words and
fuzzy logic to add a competitive edge to solve PDE and simulation
models. The position is suitable for candidates who have demonstrated
excellent track records in fuzzy logic-based soft computing techniques,
interval value PDE solvers, and processing of uncertain large scale
structured and unstructured distributed data/sparse matrix.
