Postdoc position in Systems and Algorithms for Distributed Machine Learning Data Transparency Group
The Data Transparency Group offers two Post-Doc positions in the field of Distributed Machine Learning.
Distributed Machine Learning including, but not limited to the Federated Learning (FL) paradigm, is opening new possibilities for the training of large scale machine learning models using data held by different clients in a trustworthy, privacy-preserving manner.
Of course, FL is not without its challenges, including practical scalability aspects, issues related to heterogeneity of processing and network capacities, economics and fairness aspects, as well as security and privacy threats from malicious clients and servers.
The purpose of the position will be to tackle such challenges, investigate synergies with cloud and edge computing, as well as develop practical use-cases of distributed ML for concrete examples coming from finance, advertising, e-health, transportations, etc.
The focus will be on algorithms and systems aspects of the proposed solutions and will also include practical demonstrators for real-world problems from the aforementioned domains.
Requirements (as many as possible):
- Degree in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics or related technical field.
- Strong background on developing distributed systems.
- Strong background on machine learning and algorithms.
- Knowledge on security and privacy.
- Proficiency in written and spoken English is mandatory.
- A desire to work on challenging topics and publish at top conferences is also mandatory.
- Strong publication record.
- Experience in managing and writing research grants.
- Experience in mentoring younger researchers.
