Post-doc Position, Statisitical Physics of Neural Networks

[Prof. Jong-Hoon Oh]

Postoctoral Position at POHANG UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

"Statistical Physics of Neural Networks"

A post doctorial position is available at the Basic Science Research Institute
of Pohang Institute of Science and technology. Main research area will
be statistical mechanics of neural networks. Background in statistical
physics of neural networks, spin glasses or other condensed matter
systems is prefered, but someone with a strong theoretical or computational
physics background who is willing to explore this exciting new field
can also be considered for this position.

Current research is mainly concentrated to statisitical physics
of learning in the multi-layered neural networks, including issues
such as generalization, storage capacity, population learning,
model selection. Now we are extending our research area to the biological
neural networks and time series prediction. We have computing facilities
such as two parallel computers and several high-end workstations.

We hope the successful applicant can start to work either in June or
in September, but we have some flexibility. We will support him/her for
a year, and it can be extened for one more year according to his/her
performance. Further information can be asked through e-mail.

An applicant should send a CV and a list of publications
to the following address, and arrange two recommendation letters
(or at least one from Ph. D. adviser) to be arrived before May 15.
CV in TeX/LaTeX format by e-mail is welcome.
We prefer e-mail communication. Recommendation letters can also be
sent by e-mail.
