Open Research Position in Deep Learning for Computer Vision

An opening is available for an OPEN RESEARCH POSITION at the University of Ljubljana in the area of deep learning for computer vision. The opening is available within a national research project funded by the Slovenian Research Agency (ARRS). The goal of the project is to develop deep learning models able to infer volumetric part-based models from visual data, e.g., depth images, point clouds, intensity images, etc.

The appointment is from January 1st, 2019 (may be delayed a few (1-3) months if needed) until June 30th, 2020 with a possible extension.

If the candidate does not hold a PhD degree, enrollment into the Doctoral School of the University of Ljubljana is also possible.
