Hi, I have openings for 2 postdocs to start in 2017. If you're at NIPS,
please email me to allow for the possibility of meeting in person.

Areas of research interest include:

- kernel methods
- online learning
- multitask and transfer learning
- numerical optimization
- reinforcement learning
- representation learning
- sparsity regularization
- statistical learning theory

Candidates must hold a PhD in Computer science or related discipline
(mathematics, statistics, signal processing, operations research).
Please note that outstanding applications in other areas will also be
considered.

Candidates should either have a strong background in machine learning
theory and algorithms or strong programming skills involving machine
learning algorithms and their applications. An internationally
competitive salary package subject to experience will be offered. The
scientific environment at IIT is a world-class one offering full
support to do research at outstanding levels. The positions are based
at IIT but collaborations and extended visits at University College
London are possible.

Interested applicants should submit CV, list of publications, a short
