FACULTY MEMBER IN MACHINE LEARNING OR STATISTICS – UCL, UK

The Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit at University College London is looking to recruit a junior or senior level faculty member in machine learning or statistics. We especially seek candidates who work in probabilistic or statistical machine learning.

The Gatsby Unit was set up at UCL in 1998 as a research institute devoted to machine learning and theoretical neuroscience. We have core funding for five faculty and for associated postdocs and PhD students. PIs can raise additional funds through grants. We have no undergraduate programme, so only teaching and supervision of graduate-level Gatsby students is required.

Along with the existing machine learning at Gatsby, led by Arthur Gretton and Maneesh Sahani, UCL offers a rich environment across the breadth of the field.

Activities in these areas are anchored by the Centre for Computational Statistics and Machine Learning which is directed by Mark Girolami, involving the departments of Computer Science (including David Barber, Gabriel Brostow, Mark Herbster, Massimiliano Pontil, Sebastian Riedel, David Silver and John Shawe-Taylor), Statistics (including Alex Beskos, Sofia Olhede and Ricardo Silva) and the Gatsby Unit itself. The Unit also has close ties with groups in Engineering at Cambridge (Zoubin Ghahramani, Carl Rasmussen, who were both formerly Unit members), Statistics in Oxford (Yee Whye Teh, who has just left) and beyond.

The Unit is currently located in a leafy haven in Queen Square, London. We will move in 2014 to a new building to be shared with the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour, a development which is expected to offer many opportunities for interaction.

The Unit offers internationally competitive salaries. These range from a starting point of £41,639 for a lecturer to a top point of £52,706 for a Senior Lecturer/Reader. Professorial posts have a starting point of £59,304 per annum but are negotiable.

In addition a London Allowance of £2,806 per annum is payable and a market supplement is available for exceptional candidates in line with international ranges.

Applications must be made online via the UCL job vacancies website: http:// www.ucl.ac.uk/hr/jobs/. Please be sure to attach to your online application a copy of your CV, statement of research interests and accomplishments, a teaching statement, and full contact details (including e-mail addresses) for three academic referees.

For further information, please see www.gatsby.ucl.ac.uk/vacancies/FacultyJD.pdf

For informal enquiries, please contact Peter Dayan at dayan@gatsby.ucl.ac.uk.

The closing date for applications is 20 December 2012

Interviews will be held in the New Year

PhD in Healthcare analytics & PhD in Biometrics – Surrey University

PhD in Healthcare analytics
Electronic health records contain a wealth of information that has not been fully exploited. Today, it is possible to retrieve millions of patient records over time, across vendors, and clinical practices. This research project aims to develop a set of statistical tools for processing population-scale health records, that is, in the order of millions of patient records. Although a number of statistical software packages exist, e.g., there is still room for improvement, e.g., designing better algorithms that are capable of handling sampling bias, structural noise, or under-sampled data; handling covariates or confounding factors; exploiting temporal logics; and, efficiently retrieving patient records.The work will concentrate upon novel pattern recognition, machine learning, and data-mining techniques. The student is expected to be able to use or modify existing statistical tools or methodologies in order to solve novel problems posed by healthcare informatics.

PhD in Biometrics
The project addresses the problem of evaluation and testing biometrics systems. The current practice is to evaluate the performance of biometrics systems on standard data sets, using simple criteria, such as misclassification rate, or false positive and false rejections rates. This does not gauge the sensitivity of the systems to various forms of degradation, such as registration errors, illumination problems, noise, focus and motion blur, etc. The aim of the project will be to develop novel performance metrics which will capture the effect of degradations on the system performance. The challenge will be to build models of degradation processes, and to develop techniques for generating realistic synthetic data that could be used for biometric system evaluation. The possibility of calibrating the performance measures by means of synthetic to real data association models will be investigated.

Abstract

One of the main practical goals of machine learning is to identify relevant trade-offs in different problems, formalize, and solve them. We have already achieved fairly good progress in addressing individual trade-offs, such as model order selection or exploration-exploitation. In this workshop we would like to focus on problems that involve more than one trade-off simultaneously. We are interested both in practical problems where “multi-trade-offs” arise and in theoretical approaches to their solution. Obviously, many problems in life cannot be reduced to a single trade-off and it is highly important to improve our ability to address multiple trade-offs simultaneously. Below we provide several examples of situations, where multiple trade-offs arise simultaneously. The goal of the examples is to provide a starting point for a discussion, but they are not limiting the scope and any other multi-trade-off problem is welcome to be discussed at the workshop.

Multi-trade-offs arise naturally in interaction between multiple learning systems or when a learning system faces multiple tasks simultaneously; especially when the systems or tasks share common resources, such as CPU time, memory, sensors, robot body, and so on. For a concrete example, imagine a robot riding a bicycle and balancing a pole. Each task individually (cycling and pole balancing) can be modeled as a separate optimization problem, but their solutions has to be coordinated, since they share robot resources and robot body. More generally, each learning system or system component has its own internal trade-offs, which have to be balanced against the trade-offs of other systems, whereas shared resources introduce external trade-offs that enforce cooperation. The complexity of interaction can vary from independent systems sharing common resources to systems with various degrees of relation between their inputs and tasks. In multi-agent systems communication between the agents introduces an additional trade-off.
We are also interested in multi-trade-offs that arise within individual systems. For example, model order selection and computational complexity [1], or model order selection and exploration-exploitation [2]. For a specific example of this type of problems, imagine a system for real-time prediction of the location of a ball in table tennis. This system has to balance between at least three objectives that interact in a non-trivial manner: (1) complexity of the model of flight trajectory, (2) statistical reliability of the model, (3) computational requirements. Complex models can potentially provide better predictions, but can also lead to overfitting (trade-off between (1) and (2)) and are computationally more demanding. At the same time, there is also a trade-off between having fast crude predictions or slower, but more precise estimations (trade-off between (3) and (1)+(2)). Despite the complex nature of multi-trade-offs, there is still hope that they can be formulated as convex problems, at least in some situations [3].
