Research Assistant in Bayesian Deep Learning

2 months ago


Oxford, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

The Oxford Applied and Theoretical Machine Learning group at the Department of Computer Science has a new opening for a Researcher in Bayesian deep learning, working together with Professor Yarin Gal. Conducting original research, you will develop fundamental tools at the core of Bayesian deep learning in the context of real-world AI problems.

The aim of this project is to develop principled but practical safe AI methods in Bayesian deep learning which are practical, ie could be used in real systems. This requires coping with challenges such as intractable probabilistic inference and robustness. The focus of the project is on methods for i) Bayesian machine learning, and ii) deep learning. The project thus requires familiarity with the fields above, and experience in at least one of the fields. The project will involve both theoretical work as well as empirical analysis on challenging tasks.

The primary selection criteria are an MSc degree in Computer Science or related discipline, together with related experience, a documented track record of the ability to conduct and complete research projects, as witnessed by published work in machine learning on the specific topics of Bayesian deep learning, and strong mathematical skills in probability and statistics. Good knowledge of the current state-of-the-art in safe AI and Bayesian deep learning, and experience managing projects is highly desirable.
