One Postdoctoral Fellow
- Intelligent Multimodal Sensor Designs (RF PVN # REA-639)
Applications
are invited for one postdoctoral fellow to work in the Center for
Perceptual Robotics, Intelligent Sensors and Machines (PRISM) of the Grove
School of Engineering at the City College of New York (CCNY).
The
postdoctoral fellow will mainly work on a CCNY and Rochester Institute of
Technology (RIT) joint project on Integrated Multi-modal Sensing,
Processing, and Exploitation, sponsored by the Air Force Office of
Scientific Research (AFOSR) Discovery Challenge Thrusts (DCTs). The goal of the
interdisciplinary project is to conceive adaptive multi-modal sensor concepts
in a ‘performance-driven’ context that addresses the challenging problems of
detecting, tracking, and identifying targets in highly cluttered and dynamic
scenes. This requires that the development of novel adaptive multi-modal
sensing hardware concepts be closely coupled with concurrent developments in
novel physics-based modeling and simulation of target scene phenomenology,
environmental interactions, and breakthroughs in data processing and
exploitation.
The compensation for this position is according
to experience and qualifications. The post is expected to be available in Spring 2008. Initial appointment as a postdoctoral fellow will be
for one year with possible renewal for additional two years.
The
postdoctoral fellow will also serve as a liaison between CCNY and RIT,
integrating efforts in scene simulations and sensor
modeling with the novel sensor designs and exploitation algorithm
development. The postdoctoral fellow
will mainly reside at the
Applicants for the position must have completed
a PhD in electrical and computer engineering, with knowledge in detector device design,
multimodal data fusion, 3D computer vision, or processing and exploitation of
hyperspectral images and other signals, and should have
experience with C++ in both Windows and Linux environments and be willing to
learn to use new tools.
