Dear all,
We have a vacancy for a Ph.D. Candidate at the Department of Computer Science in the Data and Artificial Intelligence group and Norwegian
Open AI Lab. The period of employment is three years (with the
option of four years when taking on teaching duties), and the
application deadline is March 10, 2022. We anticipate the starting date
for the candidate is during spring 2022.
This position is part of the SmaRTWork project funded by the Research
Council of Norway. SmaRTWork aims to develop a digital system for
personalized return to work recommendations for sick-listed with
musculoskeletal disorders. In the SmaRTWork project, we
are developing a case-based reasoning (CBR) system that provides
guidance to self-manage with the goal that the personalized intervention
facilitates a sustainable return to work.
SmaRTWork is an interdisciplinary research project led by the Department
of Public Health and Nursing at NTNU with researchers with a healthcare
and artificial intelligence background. The Ph.D. candidate contributes
to the data analysis of healthcare intervention
data, contributes to the development of the CBR system and adds
visualization and explanation that support the development process, and
communicate the reasoning of the CBR system to end-users. The work
requires knowledge about CBR, experience in developing
Java applications, and excellent hands-on knowledge in python. Ideally,
the candidate holds a master’s degree specializing in artificial
intelligence and has used CBR before. Moreover, the candidate needs to
be open and can communicate technical details to
non-technical collaborators.
