Connectionists: PhD Scholarships in complex networks & info theory at USyd

[Joseph Lizier]

Dear all,

(Apologies for cross-posting)

Two PhD scholarships are available to study with Dr. Joseph Lizier in an
Australian Research Council DECRA funded project ("Relating function of
complex networks to structure using information theory"), within the
Complex Systems Research Group in the Faculty of Engineering and IT at
The University of Sydney.
Both projects involve studying the relationship between complex network
structure and dynamics, in terms of information processing. The approach
will primarily use information theory (e.g. transfer entropy), with
applications to neural data sets:

1. "Inferring information network structure from dynamics" --

2. "Describing network and information processing co-development" --
http://bit.ly/24mp8Vq

For any questions, please contact Dr. Lizier
(joseph.lizier at sydney.edu.au). The closing date for applications is
August 14, with the successful candidate to start by Feb 2017 or
earlier.

Please forward to any interested parties.

Regards,
--joe
