The position will be held within a basic research project (financed by the FWF), where the major focus lies on the design of an interactive machine learning framework with the usage of evolving fuzzy systems methodology. The framework should operate in on-line mode and be able to cope with (measurement) data and expert input likewise, in order to stimulate “humans-in-the-loop” in on-line learning systems and thus to increase their transparency, consistency and performance.

Job Duties:
- Develop new methods and algorithms for integrating human feedback into evolving fuzzy models
- Integrate components into the interactive framework on methodological and software-technical level in collaboration with the post-doc
- Evaluate and test based on real-world data
- Complete a doctoral dissertation towards the end of the project
- Work together with the project leader and the post-doc
 
Your Qualifications:
- Skills in machine learning, ideally with expertise in fuzzy systems design and data-stream modeling
- Experience in programming, especially within MATLAB environment
- Experience in writing publications and conducting research as well as in developing own algorithms
- Fluency in spoken and written English
