PhD and postdoc positions in Human-centred Explainable AI
il y a 3 jours
We expect from applicants:
an excellent Master degree in Computer Science or related disciplinestrong programming skillsthe ability to do independent researcha good background and interest in human-computer interaction research: this is a strong requirement
strong commitment and the ability to work in a teama high level of proficiency in English, both spoken and written.
We have two open positions (fully funded) in Human-centred Explainable AI for a new project on the use of AI in human resources. We welcome applications of both postdocs and PhD candidates.
The project aims to develop human-centered explanations that explain matching results for both job seekers and recruiters, as well as potential biases in data and models. Additionally, we will elaborate explanations of fairness notions as a basis to build consensus on which fairness metrics to use. A key emphasis will be on human-computer interaction aspects and the development of user interfaces tailoring to the needs of end users.
The Augment group is is one of the research units of the Human-Computer-Interaction section of the Department of Computer Science of KU Leuven. Research in the Augment group focuses on Human-Centered AI, an emerging discipline that aims to amplify and augment human abilities and preserve human control in order to make AI systems more productive, enjoyable, and fair. The objective is to enable end-users to understand the rationale of AI models and to enable them to steer models with input and feedback. The approach is researched to increase appropriate trust, acceptance and accuracy of models and to empower users to be an active and responsive part-taker in data-driven solutions. The focus is on visualisation and interaction techniques, using the full spectrum of hardware from small mobile devices to large multi-touch displays. Applications include learning analytics, precision agriculture, healthcare, media consumption, digital humanities, food & nutrition, fintech and human resources.
Funding is available immediately. The research will be carried out at the Department of Computer Science of KU Leuven.
