		       Neural Computing Research Group

	       Institute of Informatics and Applied Mathematics

		       University of Bern, Switzerland


The Neural Computing Research Group at the University of Bern is looking for
a highly motivated individual for a two year postdoctoral research position 
as project manager in the area of development of a neuromorphic perception 
system based on multi sensor fusion. 

The aim of the project is to develop a neurobiologically plausible perception 
system for novelty detection in a real world environment (e.g. quality 
control in industrial production lines or supervision of security zones) using
the fusion of audio and video information and fast learning algorithms for the
dynamic binding of signal features.

Potential candidates should have good skills in applied optical sciences
with a sound background in mathematics and signal processing, and working 
knowledge in neurobiology and neural networks. Further knowledge of 
programming (Matlab, LabView or C/C++) or VLSI technology is highly desirable
but not required. Project management includes the supervision and the 
scientific leading of the collaborators (1 Postdoc/ 2 PhD candidates). The 
position will begin May 1, 1997, with possible renewal for an additional two 
years. The initial salary is SFr. 70'000/year (approx. $50'000).

To apply for this position, send your curriculum vitae, publication list with
one or two sample publications and two letters of reference before
March 15, 1997, by surface mail to (applications by e-mail will not be
accepted)
