Dear colleagues

Please forward this email to relevant candidates.

HC Ørsted Postdoc in Cognitive Audio Systems or Sensor Information Processing at DTU Denmark

I am encouraging and will be happy to support qualified postdoc candidates to apply for an incoming mobility HC Ørsted Postdoc grant within Cognitive Audio Systems or Sensor Information Processing in relation to activities at the Cognitive Systems Section, Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science at the Technical University of Denmark, Copenhagen, Denmark.

Link to call:

http://www.dtu.dk/english/Research/Research-at-DTU/HC-Oersted-Postdoc---COFUND

DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 23, 2015, midnight CET

PostDocs will be formal employees at the university up to max. two years, and the monthly salary (before tax) is around 3,600 EUR (pension plan included). The actual salary and employment contract is regulated by the collective agreement with the Confederation of Professional Associations (AC) in accordance with the Danish labor laws.

Cognitive Audio Systems (CoSound)

My current activities in Cognitive Audio Systems deals with processing of audio and related information from sensing related information, context as well as users' state, interaction, intention, and goals with the purpose of providing innovative services related to relevant societal challenges in

·       Transforming big data into semantically interoperable data assets and knowledge: enrichment and navigation in large sound archives such as broadcast;

·       Healthcare: Music interventions to improve quality of life in relation to disorders such as stress, pain, and ADHD and user-driven optimization of hearing aids;

·       Experience economy and edutainment: new music services based on mood.

The research is currently funded by the strategic research project CoSound (www.cosound.dk<http://www.cosound.dk>) with 10+ partners. The aim of CoSound is integration of audio and other modalities with interactive user data to improve music experience/navigation and search & retrieval in large audio archives. The project has developed a modular computational platform, which enables large-scale analysis and conduction of experiments. In addition, I direct the Danish Sound Innovation Network (http://www.danishsound, which is a Danish university/industry network that facilitates knowledge dissemination and cross-sector collaboration.

Sensor Information Processing (MakeSense)

Mu research in this area involves processing of sensor signals and related information with the purpose of fostering innovative cyber-physical systems addressing societal challenges in

·       Food: Grain analysis

·       Security: Explosives and drug detection

·       Health: blood and water analysis

·       Energy: wind mill maintenance

·       Environment: exhaust gas analysis, large diesel engine monitoring

·       Resource efficiency: waste sorting
This research is currently funded by various Danish and European projects.

Best regards, Jan Larsen
