Italy: PhD Research Grants in the field of Signal/Video Processing, Data Fusion, and Pattern Recognition and telecommunications

Deadline: 31st Dec. 2012

PhD Research Grants in the field of Signal/Video Processing, Data Fusion, and Pattern Recognition and telecommunications at University of Genova, Genova, Italy
http://www.isip40.it/index.php?mod=08_Vacancies
The 7 research grants or jobs are available to work in collaboration with University of Genova, Signal Processing ISIP40 lab, Italy and renowned companies such as Sylex, Technoware etc. in Genova, Italy.
This is job for initially one year, which can be renewed up to 2 years. You can be Master degree holder to be eligible for this job and you will have chance to enroll in PhD also for next year and can win a grant to work on PhD in university.
The research areas and topics are given below and you should be good in those areas for application:
Applications are invited for 7 Research Grant open position
The ISIP40 group, active in the DIBE department in the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Genoa has focused its attention mostly on:
1. Multidimensional Signal/Video Processing
2. Multi sensor Data Fusion
3. Bio-inspired adaptive and evolving Pattern Recognition methods for Analysis and Decision
4. Cognitive Distributed Systems for Telecommunications and Physical Security
These available research grants are sponsored by the Regione Liguria and the research activities will be developed together with companies and research districts of the region. Each research grant, starting at the beginning of April 2013, will last 1 year but it can be renewed for a total of 2 years.

In the first (informal) phase the interested applicants should send their complete CV , two recommendation letters and the preferred research topic (see below) to Lucio Marcenaro, e-mail: lucio.marcenaro@unige.it or lucio[DOT]marcenaro[AT]unige[DOT]it
Received CVs will be considered by ISIP40 research group and the candidates whose CV fits with available grants research topics, will be encouraged to proceed with the official application at the Genoa University - deadline 08-02-2013.
Send your CV, two recommendation letters and the preferred research topic (see below) to Lucio Marcenaro, e-mail: lucio.marcenaro@unige.it; lucio[DOT]marcenaro[AT]unige[DOT]it
10-01-2013 notification of pre-evaluation results: potential candidates will be informed whether their CV fits with one of the available research grants, thus encouraged to proceed with the official application:
08-02-2013 candidates who passed the first pre-evaluation phase must send their official application via standard ground mail to the University of Genoa
March 2013 official applicants’ interviews
April, 1st 2013 research grants start

Topic: The main objective of this activity is to develop telecommunication systems modules that are flexible, dynamic and able to learn from experience. These modules are inspired by human reasoning principles and are able to allow interactive and personalized services. A promising paradigm is represented by Cognitive Radio. The main difference with respect to the other technologies is that radio equipment are being enriched with intelligence and adaptability features, in such a way they can adapt to the different situations without any external operator action. Decision processes are considered within information science research field since several years, mainly in the context of artificial intelligence. However, several learning and decision algorithms already implemented cannot be easily adapted to the limited resources of the mobile wireless terminals. For these reasons, learning and decision algorithms suitable for wireless communications devices are still being investigated.
