Post-Doctoral Position, Uni Oldenburg: analysis of speech coding in the human brain

The Department of Applied Neurocognitive Psychology at Oldenburg University, Germany, offers a Post-doctoral position (salary level E13 TVL, 3 years) with a focus on signal processing / statistical learning for analysis of speech coding in the human brain. The position is linked to the collaborative research center "The Active Auditory System" SFB-TR 31. 

The research center aims to characterize and model mechanism of auditory object formation and scene analysis by combining psychophysical, neurophysiological, and quantitative modelling. It complements the Excellence Cluster "Hearing 4 All" which was recently awarded to the University of Oldenburg. 

The combined effort of these centers will establish a strong link between neurophysiological models of auditory object representation and subjective perception. The post-doctoral position is situated in a project that applies statistical learning methods to human intracranial recordings (ECoG) and fMRI to derive and test quantitative statistical models of speech coding in the human brain.

The experiments are performed in a highly interdisciplinary lab environment and in close collaboration with the University of California Berkeley and Stanford University. The quantitative nature of the research project will require highly motivated candidates with strong quantitative and experimental skills.

PhD Position available at Signal Processing Group

PhD position available at Signal Processing Group at the Department of Medical Physics and Acoustics, University of Oldenburg, Germany is seeking to fill the position of a PhD student in the PhD Program "Signals and Cognition". This full-time position is available for initially 3 years, with a monthly stipend amounting to min. 1500 € (net).

The title of the envisaged research project is "Multi-microphone speech enhancement using brain computer interfaces" (SigCog 05). In many speech communication applications, such as hearing aids and teleconferencing systems, the recorded signals consist of a mixture of different speakers and background noise. 

Although in the last decades several multi-microphone speech enhancement techniques (e.g. fixed and adaptive beamforming, Multi-Channel Wiener Filter, blind source separation) have been developed, they all rely on pre-defined assumptions about the target speaker. E.g. in hearing aids the target speaker is typically assumed to be in front of the user, whereas in teleconferencing systems it is assumed to be the loudest speaker. 

Doctoral Grant in Biostatistics

Doctoral Grant from The Unit of Biostatistics fosters collaboration with researchers in epidemiology, clinical research, and biological, social, and basic sciences. The research interests span a wide range that includes quantile inference, computational statistics, meta-analysis, survival data analysis, genetic statistics, longitudinal data analysis, causal inference, and asymptotic inference. The unit is actively involved in the development and application of statistical methods that may help improve each and every step and thus contribute toward solving health problems. 

The unit also strives to disseminate knowledge and culture of biostatistics domestically and internationally. Post-graduate research supervision, teaching, and presentations to statistical and non-statistical audiences are an essential part of its mission.

A Rio Tinto studentship is being offered to an excellent student in Chemical Engineering, Minerals Processing or related disciplines. 

The studentship will cover all student fees, and also offers a tax-free stipend of approximately �15,590 per annum for the period 2010/2011. 

Applications will be considered from both local and overseas students.

Heap leaching is a process for extracting metals from ores. It is rapidly increasing in its usage due to lower operating and capital costs compared to more conventional extraction methods. Understanding the fluid flow and mass transport processes occurring within the heap is essential to improving its design and operation.

This project will be predominantly experimental and will involve the use of a variety of techniques to investigate fluid flow within heaps at both the laboratory and pilot scale. 

The candidate should have a good understanding of fluid dynamics and desirably some knowledge or experience of minerals processing.

NEW 2010 Ph.D. Position in Hydrology

NEW 2010 Ph.D. Position in Hydrology

Subject : “Application of functional connectivity indicators for improving subgrid surface flow hydrogram estimation in distributed hydrological modelling ” The Agricultural Engineering research group of the Earth and Life Institute is offering a PhD fellowship for a period of up to 4 years to work on the refinement of surface flow modelling at the subgrid scale of distributed hydrological models as NEW 2010 Ph.D

Research project summary Subgrid modelling of surface hydrological flow in physically-based, spatially-distributed models is currently based on the use of effective parameters which cannot properly capture the subgrid connectivity of surface runoff.

A promising connectivity function – the Relative Surface Contribution function (RSC) (Antoine et al., 2009) - has been recently developed and tested at the 1 m² scale, which improves the modelling of subgrid runoff generation.

This project seeks to pursue the integration of the subgrid connectivity function in spatially-distributed hydrological models and to test the scale-dependency of the RSC function and its time-rate of change for contrasted initial conditions. This will involve a combination of field/lab and numerical experiments.
