Job Description
We are seeking a motivated postdoctoral researcher to work on an interdisciplinary project at the intersection of deep learning and comparative politics. The candidate will work in the Human-Centered Machine Learning (HuMaLearn) team of Prof. Benoît Frénay and the Belgian and Comparative Politics team of Prof. Jérémy Dodeigne. The goal will be to develop new deep learning methodologies to analyse large corpuses of archive videos that picture political debates. We specifically aim to detect emotions, body language, movements, attitudes, etc. This project is linked to the ERC POLSTYLE project that Jérémy Dodeigne recently obtained, guaranteeing a stimulating research environment. The HuMaLearn team gathers about ten researchers, many of them being actively working in deep learning, but not only and with a keen openness to interdisciplinarity.
