Connectionists: PhD position in Deep Learning: Sparse Training and Autonomous Driving

[Decebal Mocanu]

Dear all,

We are happy to announce an open 4-years PhD position on the theoretical
and practical aspects of sparse training for sparse neural networks at
Eindhoven University of Technology. For a gentle introduction please see:
https://numenta.com/blog/2020/10/30/case-for-sparsity-in-neural-networks-part-2-dynamic-sparsity
An example of our work on the topic is here:
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-04316-3

The PhD candidate is expected to contribute to:

   - developing novel sparse-to-sparse training algorithms
   - achieving theoretical understanding of dynamic sparsity in neural
   networks
   - studying both cloud computing and low-resource device settings
   - translating research findings into the application domain of
   autonomous driving

More details and the application procedure can be found here (the
application deadline is 31 January 2021):
