Assistant/Associate Professor in Statistical Learning Theory - 3 years contract

We are looking for an Associate Professor in Statistical Learning Theory to join Image, Data, Signal (IDS).

The Information Processing and Communication Laboratory (LTCI) is Telecom Paris’ in-house research laboratory. Since January 2017, it has continued the work previously carried out by the CNRS joint research unit of the same name. The LTCI was created in 1982 and is known for its extensive coverage of topics in the field of information and communication technologies. The LTCI’s core subject areas are computer science, networks, data science, signal and image processing and digital communications. The laboratory is also active in issues related to systems engineering and applied mathematics.The open position is part of the research strategy of LTCI and Télécom Paris around Data Science, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. The position will be hosted by the Statistics, Signal processing and Machine Learning (S²A) team, within the Images, Data & Signals department. In particular, research at the S²A team is characterized by a fruitful interplay between statistics and probabilistic modeling, machine learning, signal processing, audio data analysis and natural language processing. The associate professor will contribute as well to the dynamics of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris with a very rich ecosystem where projects in Data Science abound, whether it be between academic teams or with industrial groups.
