R&d 'ai for Recycling'
Il y a 4 mois
The **Waste Recycling Technologies** (ART) team of VITO is looking for a creative and motivated** researcher **to develop breakthrough technologies in the waste processing industry, using **artificial intelligence (AI)**.
Automated quantitative characterization and sorting of waste materials (metal scrap, batteries, WEEE, MSWI-bottom ashes) is a key requirement for the transition towards a circular economy with increased resource efficiency. To this end, VITO’s ART team has developed an industrial prototype, named** Characterise-to-Sort**, able to capture dual energy x-ray transmission, RGB and 3D image data in an online fashion by scanning the materials on a moving conveyor belt. The team is expanding to speed up development and implementation of this technology.
Further development of this technology towards industrial implementation requires research in the field of:
- ** Designing, training, testing and deploying **state-of-the-art machine learning models for various clients in the waste recycling industry
- ** Development and optimization** of image processing and data pipelines, leveraging GPU & CPU parallelization
- Intuitive visualisations, dashboards and explainable AI (XAI) to empower the human-in-the-loop
- ** Active learning**, semi
- and unsupervised learning to reduce the labelling effort and train machine learning models with fewer data.
VITO’s ART team provides a clear view on how to recover resources to both industry and government. Using innovative approaches and expertise, we strive towards a circular economy by transforming waste into high-quality products.

- A **competitive salary** with a range of benefits, including allowances, insurance and a modular package of holidays.
