and built-in sensors as well as other on-body sensors that are relevant for capturing and classifying human behavior. This is with the goal of providing the user with the right interventions at the right time. It is a part of the Research Council of Norway
funded project INtroducing personalized TReatment Of Mental health problems using Adaptive Technology (INTROMAT, see </span><a href="http://www.intromat.no/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; text-decoration: none; color: rgb(102, 17, 204); cursor: pointer; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">www.intromat.no</a><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="">).
The project – led by Haukeland University Hospital, aims at developing technology that can analyse the user's voice, movement and other properties, and use that for modeling and predicting how these changes with the mental condition. Smartphone and wearables
are relevant for data collection, and the system should provide the user with appropriate support and follow up schemes. </span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">

in computer science including machine learning/artificial intelligence (other degrees would be considered if qualifications match). Thus, applicants should have a strong background in programming and machine learning/artificial intelligence. Moreover, knowledge
in the fields of human behaviour tracking and analysis, sensor data analysis, biology-inspired techniques, behavior modeling, and app development would be an advantage. A number of partners are involved in the project so collaboration skills would also be
assessed. </span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">
