Prof. Dr.-Ing. Marcus Magnor
The position holder has a strong background in Computer Science with a focus on Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, specifically in the areas of Dependable AI and Explainable AI. Applicants should possess a method-oriented research focus on machine learning and have made internationally recognized contributions to at least one of the current research areas such as neural networks, generative and adversarial models, online and transfer learning, federated learning, (deep) reinforcement learning, probabilistic inference, graphical models, and/or MDP/POMDP. A researcher is sought who is able to combine the theoretical-methodological investigation and development of learning methods with applications in interactive intelligent systems, for example in autonomous robots, intelligent virtual agents, or intelligent networked production systems. Suitable applicants are expected to show an active interest in the concrete implementation of cognitive abilities in technical systems, ensuring compatibility with partners in engineering and natural sciences. With his/her research performance, the position holder will enhance the international visibility of TU Braunschweig in the field of Artificial Intelligence. In teaching, topic-related courses in the areas of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning shall complement the Bachelor's and Master's degree programs of the Department of Computer Science. In particular, the topic of Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence is to be anchored in undergraduate teaching with a new compulsory Bachelor course. Participation in the academic self-administration of the university is expected as well as the willingness to actively shape computer science at the TU Braunschweig.
