Reasoning about Agent's Mental States in Dialog and Joint Activity (CMU Silicon Valley)

  • Employer: Inst. for the Study of Learning and Expertise at CMU Silicon Valley
  • Title: Post MS, Post Doc, or above
  • Specialty: Logic, Reasoning (Abduction/Inference), Production systems, Discourse processes, Reasoning
  • Location: Mountain Vew, CA
  • Deadline: As soon as possible
  • Date Posted: March 21, 2012
  • Contact: patrick.w.langley@gmail.com

An ongoing project has an opening for a researcher who will help extend Icarus, a cognitive architecture, to reason about other agents' mental states in the context of dialogues and joint activities. The framework uses a logical formalism to encode knowledge, beliefs, and goals, and it relies on a form of abduction to make plausible inferences. Experience in building reasoning systems that operate over rich representations is essential, and a background in applied logic, knowledge-based systems, and/or cognitive architectures is highly desirable.

The location of the project will be Carnegie Mellon's Silicon Valley Campus. The start date is negotiable, but the position will be available on May 1, 2012, and the project has funding for another two years. Interested parties should send their curriculum vitae, along with the contact details for two or more references, to Pat Langley <patrick.w.langley@gmail.com>.

4 PhD positions in spoken dialogue systems research

  • Employer: Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics, Charles University in Prague
  • Job title: 4 PhD positions in spoken dialogue systems research
  • Specialty: spoken dialogue systems, machine learning, Bayesian methods, and natural language processing
  • Location: Prague, Czech Republic
  • Deadline: 1 June 2012
  • Date posted: 16 February 2012
  • Link to website: http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/~jurcicek/jobs

Applications are invited for 4 PhD fellowships in the area of statistical spoken dialogue systems funded by the Czech Government. The students will join the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics, Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic with an anticipated start date of October 1st, 2012.

Topic description: In recent years, it has been suggested that statistical approach to spoken dialogue system offer a framework to naturally handle inherent uncertainty in the human speech. The two main advantages of statistical methods are increased robustness in noisy conditions and more natural behaviour learned from data. However, the current methods need large corpora effectively preventing these methods to be used for complex dialogue systems occurring in real-life. The successful PhD candidates will investigate and implement statistical models and methods with the aim of increasing the efficiency of the learning process and reducing the need for large corpora. The conducted research will cover areas of spoken language understanding, dialogue management, and natural language processing.

Skills: Candidates should hold a master degree in a relevant area, such as computer science, mathematics, engineering or linguistics. A strong mathematical background, excellent programming skills (e.g. C/C++, Java, MATLAB, and various scripting languages under Linux environment), aptitude for creative research and autonomy are expected. Experience in machine learning, Bayesian methods, and natural language processing is a plus.

The Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics is a top-level research group working in the area of computational linguistics and natural language processing. During the fellowship, there will be good opportunities to attend international conferences and workshops. The formal applications should be submitted before June 1. Prospective candidates are strongly encouraged to contact Dr Filip Jurcicek (jurcicek@ufal.mff.cuni.cz) as soon as possible to obtain details about the application process, the institute, and the research opportunities.

PhD-position in sentiment mining and reputation analysis

In the context of the COMMIT project Information Retrieval for Information Services (COMMIT/Infiniti http://www.project-infiniti.nl/), applications are invited for a PhD student position. The research task will be to investigate the Mining of Economic Entities. As currently people easily share their sentiment regarding companies and products, reputation modeling has become increasingly important for commercial and non-commercial organisations. Due to the huge amount of opinions available through the Web, a manual approach for social media analysis for sentiment mining seems unfeasible, while there seems to be a huge potential for content-driven automated approaches. Through the mining of economic entities and the aggregated sentiment based on textual data, the aim is to support decisions on, e.g., product developments, marketing campaigns, etc. The envisaged prototype for a decision support tool will act as an indicator of public sentiment and trends. In addition, the variation in the dynamics of opinion forming for diverging domains such as economic news, political sentiment, and sentiment towards historical events will be studied. The PhD track is embedded in the work of the EUR team working on the Infiniti project (Erasmus School of Economics/Econometric Institute/ Computer Science Group and Erasmus Studio) and the student will be able to collaborate on related topics with PhD students and researchers from other organizations participating in COMMIT.

For more information please visit this link: http://www.eur.nl/erasmusstudio/about_erasmus_studio/open_positions

To apply, send an email with the required documents (cv, motivation, relevant certificates and the names of two referees) to commit.eur@gmail.com.
