[vslist] Postdoc and PhD position in mathematical multiscale models for vi sion

[Haar Romenij, B.M. ter]

Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), Department of Biomedical
Engineering (BME), has a vacancy for:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

1 postdoc (2 years) and 1 PhD student (4 years). Starting Date: August 1,
2002

Subject: "Bio-inspired Multiscale Image Analysis"

 

The Department of Biomedical Engineering is an inter-university department
in which departments of TU/e and University of Maastricht closely
collaborate. Education and research focus on the human body and its
functioning. BME has biological, medical and technological aspects, making
it strongly multidisciplinary. 

 

Project: In August 2002 a collaborative program will start between 4
European partners. Goal is to develop new theory and practice in singularity
theory, scale-space theory and algorithmics to create efficient algorithms
for solving biomedical computer vision tasks. This is a new approach to
medical image analysis, inspired by multi-scale models for human visual
perception. The overall objective is to summarize images in a generic
tree/graph data structure. We will investigate how this analysis benefits
image coding, storage, shape representations, structural search, matching
and indexing, for tasks like image communication, database search,
registration of images, computer aided diagnosis, and object recognition.
Techniques used are: singularity theory, algorithmics, and scale-space
theory.

 

Profile: The candidate postdoc has an academic and a PhD degree in a
relevant field and is familiar with multi-scale methods. The candidate PhD
student has an academic degree in a relevant field and affinity with
mathematical and statistical methods. The candidates like working in a
multidisciplinary environment with physicists, mathematicians, biomedical
engineers and biologists. 

 

Terms of employment: Postdoc resp. PhD student: Fulltime, 2 years, resp. 4
years with intermediate evaluation after 1 year. Salary will be in
accordance with national university regulations ("CAO Nederlandse
Universiteiten") for postdocs resp. PhD students. Support with personal
development and career planning. Attractive secondary labor conditions
(among others: a compensation of 1818 euro for the production of the PhD
thesis). 

 

Contact: Send your letter of application and CV to TU/e, Dept. of BME, to
Dr. A. A. Klumper  <mailto:(a.a.klumper at tue.nl> (a.a.klumper at tue.nl),
Managing Director, PO Box 513, 5600 MB Eindhoven, mentioning vacancy-number
50.028 (Postdoc) or 50.033 (PhD student). For project information contact
