Postdoctoral Openings: Machine Learning in Analytics for E-Learning, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology

Postdoctoral research positions are available for a new project on applying advanced machine learning techniques to e-learning, which is funded by the Innovation and Technology Commission of the Hong Kong Government and several industry sponsors. It involves researchers at both the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Candidates are expected to have strong research experience in machine learning and preferably also in learning analytics. Those with demonstrated expertise in predictive modeling, recommendation, and temporal data analysis are particularly suitable. Initial appointments will usually be for one year but funding is available for up to 4 years.
To apply, please send to Prof. Dit-Yan Yeung (dyyeung-AT-cse.ust.hk) your CV, up to 3 representative publications, and a cover letter explaining how your research experience matches our project needs. Applications received before the end of July 2016 will be given higher priority but we will continue to accept applications until all positions are filled.
