Connectionists: Postdoctoral fellowship in vision and learning

[Geoffrey Hinton]

The attached advertisement is for a two-year Junior Fellowship in the
program on Neural Computation and Adaptive Perception funded by the
Canadian Institute for Advanced Research.

Applicants should have a PhD in Computer Science, Computational
Neuroscience, or a related discipline, and already have an exceptional
track record of original research. The Junior Fellow will pursue his
or her own research program, which should be related to computational
approaches to how visual systems can be learned, preferably with some
relevance to biological visual systems. The Junior Fellowship will be
held in conjunction with a university postdoctoral appointment and is
tenable at any of the Canadian universities where Fellows in the NCAP
Program are based. These are:

University of Montreal (Yoshua Bengio)
Queens University (Niko Troje)
York University (Hugh Wilson)
University of Toronto (David Fleet, Brendan Frey, Aaron Hertzmann,
Geoff Hinton, Rich Zemel)
University of British Colombia (Nando de Freitas, David Lowe)

The application deadline is September 1 2010.
