PhD Position at the University of Vienna
—————————————-
The Faculty of Mathematics of the University of Vienna is inviting
applications for a 3 year PhD position (extension to 4 years possible) in the
research group of Prof. Philipp Grohs in the fields of computational
harmonic analysis,
numerics of PDEs or machine learning (see www.sam.math.ethz.ch/~pgrohs for
further information regarding possible research directions).

Candidates are expected to have a master in mathematics or a closely related
field with excellent grades, preferably with a strong background in analysis
and numerics. The preferred starting date is July 1st 2016 but the actual
date is negotiable. Applications in a single pdf-document including all
relevant documents should be sent to
Prof. Dr. Philipp Grohs, philipp.grohs@univie.ac.at, by 15th March 2016.

University Lecturer in the Mathematics of Information
—————————————————–
Applications are invited for a University Lectureship in the Mathematics of
Information to commence on 1 September 2016 or by agreement. Appointment
will be made at an appropriate point on the University scale and will be
for a
probationary period of five years with appointment to the retiring age
thereafter, subject to satisfactory performance.

Candidates should hold a PhD or equivalent in mathematics or a closely
related subject, and have an outstanding record of research in the
mathematics of
data science.

Interviews are expected to be held during the week beginning 15 February
2016 or shortly thereafter.

Informal enquiries about the position may be made to Dr Carola-Bibiane
Schönlieb (C.B.Schoenlieb@damtp.cam.ac.uk)

Postdoc positions in Graph Signal Processing / Dimension Reduction
——————————————————————
Compressive Learning
——————–
The PANAMA team is welcoming applications from highly qualified candidates
for postdoctoral positions in the context of the ERC project PLEASE
(Projection, Learning and Sparsity for Efficient data processing).
The PLEASE project gathers a small research group to explore the frontiers
of Signal Processing and Machine Learning under the auspices of sparsity
and low-dimensional projections. With its task force of graduate students
and postdocs with different scientific backgrounds, and its program of
international visitors, PLEASE develops the mathematical and algorithmic
foundations of new ways to acquire, analyze and process the information
content of complex data, streams and collections.

To apply: applicants are requested to send a detailed CV, a list of
publications and a brief statement of research interests. This material,
together with two letters of reference, shall be sent to
Remi.Gribonval@inria.fr (cc: Stephanie.lemaile@inria.fr).
