complement our existing research activity in this area.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;text-align:justify">We are looking for established researchers (associate/full professor) or outstanding young researchers (assistant professor)<b>.
</b>Applications are welcome from applicants who have demonstrated research and teaching expertise, with focus in one or more of the following areas: machine learning, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, data visualization, computer vision,
and scalable computing. <span style="font-size:10.5pt;background:white;mso-highlight:white">
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">The successful candidate is expected to develop an externally funded research programme in data science, publish in high impact journals, supervise research (postgraduate) students, teach at both undergraduate
and graduate levels, and provide service to the department and institution. Peer-reviewed external funding is expected to be obtained and sustained. Industrial partnerships are also strongly encouraged.<o:p></o:p></p>
