CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Computer Vision and Image Analysis

• Do you have a PhD in Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence or Machine Learning?
• Do you want to advance your scientific knowledge & experience?
• Join CSIRO – Australia’s leading scientific research organisation!

CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience. These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.

We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to conduct cutting-edge research in self-supervised learning and adaptable learning systems, this includes developing novel semantic representations and methods that can generalise across scenarios and support complex reasoning. Aspects involving spatio-temporal modelling and tracking are also of high importance for our research. The fellow will contribute with a strong background in computer vision, machine learning, and programming in the following core areas:

• Learning from unannotated data, so called self-supervision, for the purpose of addressing common problems in machine learning and computer vision such as lack of data, lack of annotations and lack of access to domain expertise.
• Continuous lifelong learning (adaptable learning systems)
• Enabling top-down as well as bottom-up modelling via encoding domain knowledge. That is, learning models based not only on the input of data but also via explicit knowledge of domain experts.

The successful candidate will join the high-performing Imaging and Computer vision Group at the CSIRO’s Data61, joining 600 other data science scientists building innovative solutions for Australia. The fellow will be supported by a large Team comprising many post-graduate students and be involved in their supervision.
