Research Associate / Research Fellow in AI, NLP, HRI

https://enzj.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/sites/CX/job/1129/?utm_medium=jobshare
The focus of this position is on AI, NLP, and Human-robot interaction
methods for multi-modal and multi-party interaction. A socially assistive
robot (SAR) should be able to talk to a group of people in a natural and
pertinent way within a visual environment. To achieve this, we will build
on our success in the MuMMER H2020 EU project (http://mummer-project.eu/)
and the Amazon Alexa Challenge. Hence, the main duties are to
implement/adapt and evaluate a socially intelligent multimodal multi-party
conversational system for a SAR, and to collect and analyse multimodal
conversational data. The successful applicant is expected to perform
collaborative research on AI, NLP and machine learning within an
international consortium, publish at high-impact conferences and journals
in their field, and disseminate their work at national and international
conferences and outreach events. Experience with machine learning methods
in conversational AI, machine learning for Vision and Language, and
multimodal dialogue systems/NLP are highly desirable.
