PostDoc: Computer Vision for scene understanding in Degraded Conditions for Autonomous Driving

Posted on February, 23th 2018

Job Type: Post Doctoral
Location: Paris, France – RITS Team
Duration : 1 year
Starting date : May/July 2018
Title: PostDoc: Computer Vision for scene understanding in Degraded Conditions for Autonomous Driving

Description

RITS team in Inria Paris is a research team working on autonomous driving. The group Computer Vision in the team is looking for a post-doc with excellent research knowledge and strong record in computer vision or machine learning.

The purpose of this position is to pursue our past work on vision in degraded conditions (bad weather, low lights, and occlusion, reflections, etc.).

The candidate must have an excellent research skills in computer vision and machine learning and very good records in one this field: computer vision, mobile robotics, or machine learning. The subject of the post-doc will be refined with the candidate but will be related to computer vision in degraded conditions including possible focus on glares, bad weather vision, strong occlusion, non-diffuse materials, etc. Several research lines are envisaged such as physic based models for computer vision, deep learning enforcing physic models for illumination, etc. Depending on a pending project, the work might be in collaboration with international research group and which would allow collaboration abroad (max. 3 months).

The candidate must have knowledge in one the following applications: object recognition, scene segmentation, 3D reconstruction, and knowledge of the following fields: computer vision, machine learning. She/He will have to publish to top tier conference(s) during the post-doctoral.

Requirements

– Excellent knowledge of computer vision or deep learning for computer vision
– Strong publication records in computer vision (ICCV, CVPR, ECCV) or vision for mobile robotics (ICRA, IROS, IV).
– Good knowledge of either: object recognition, scene segmentation, 3D reconstruction, etc
– PhD in either Computer Vision or Machine Learning
– Good programming skills (Python and C++)
– Experience with real world mobile robotics is a plus

Location and Team

The job is located in center of Paris (France), at the Inria national research institute RITS team (Robotics and Intelligent Transportation System). The team has approx. 20 people working on Computer Vision/Planning/Control for intelligent transportation and autonomous vehicles (to test/validate our researches). The environment is nice and lively, with people from worldwide origins. Social skills will be appreciated, as collaborations with other researchers/PhDs is expected.

Salary

Remuneration follows the official grid (based on latest diploma and experience)
