Division of Mathematical Sciences, School
of Physical and Mathematical Sciences
5 Postdocs and 9 Ph.D positions in
mathematical image processing and
computer vision
Applicants are invited to join the computational mathematics and scientific
computing group in NTU (Nanyang Technological University) on interdisciplinary
computational imaging, computer vision and computer graphics, at the
boundaries between mathematics, computer science and engineering. This group
has been funded for four years to build a national resource to explore new
mathematical and computational methods for PDE-based image processing and
analysis, surface processing involving compression, reconstruction, remeshing
and encoding for Interactive Digital Media development.
We hereby invite applications for 5 postdoc
positions and up to 9 phd scholars.

All positions are available from December 1 2007.

Review process will start October 1 2007 and continue until all positions
are filled.

The postdoc positions will be granted for a period of one year and can be
extended up to three years after appropriate probation.

The Ph.D scholarships will be granted for a period of 4 years.
Requirements for the Postdoc positions:
The potstdoc candidates will be working with PDE based image processing
and visualization related to surfaces. Thus, it is preferred that the candidate
should have sufficient knowledge and experience with numerical simulations
for partial differential equations. Optimization methods are also central in the
project. Candidates with strong backgrounds in any area of medical imaging,
image processing, computer vision and data compression are also
encouraged to apply even with weaker PDE knowledge.
Salary will be commensurate with experience and background.
Requirements for the PhD positions:
The Phd candidate should have taken sufficient courses in applied mathematics
related to numerical approximations or have a strong course record in image
processing, medical imaging, optimization or computer vision. Experience with
numerical simulations and project work is an advantage. The candidate is
supposed to finish a phd degree in applied mathematics within 4 years.
