*Description*
Idiap is currently inviting applications for two new permanent Senior 
Researcher positions. The main focus of this search is for highly 
qualified candidates, with evidence of strong research, PhD student 
supervision, and project management capabilities. Applicants should also 
demonstrate evidence of the ability to pursue an independent program of 
research, a strong commitment to both graduate and undergraduate 
teaching, the ability to initiate and conduct research across 
disciplines, and to perform technology transfer.

The Idiap Research Institute is an independent, not-for-profit, research 
institute. Building on strong signal processing and machine learning 
expertise, the Institute carries out advanced R&D activities in the 
field of human and media computing, including perceptual and cognitive 
systems, speech and language processing, computer vision, information 
interfaces and presentation, social/human behavior, biometric person 
recognition, robotics, and biological imaging.

The Institute is especially interested in those candidates committed to 
novel theories and applications of machine learning and signal 
processing, while contributing to the diversification of Idiap’s 
activities and bringing expertise in new application areas. Topics of 
particular interest include (but are not limited to) new applications of 
deep learning, multimedia processing, autonomous systems, knowledge 
management, and collaborative systems (collective intelligence, digital 
humanities). Priority, however, will always be given to the overall 
originality and promise of the candidate’s work over any specific area 
of specialization.
