[visionlist] Postdoctoral positions in perception and action

[david c knill]

Post-doctoral position in visual perception or visuo-motor control
Center for Visual Science, University of Rochester

The lab of David Knill at the University of Rochester has 
post-doctoral positions open in two areas: 3D visual perception and 
visuo-motor control. The lab uses both psychophysical and 
computational methods to study how humans use visual information to 
perceive the 3D layouts of scenes and to guide goal-directed hand 
movements. Problems of particular focus in the lab are Bayesian, 
robust sensory cue integration, causal modeling applied to 
perception, statistical learning applied both to perception and motor 
control, feedback control of hand movements, and the role of visual 
short-term memory in planning hand movements in complex scenes.  The 
lab has available a large stable of technical tools to support these 
studies include real-time motion tracking systems, eye trackers, a 
180 degree field of view display and a haptic-visual virtual reality 
environment incorporating two Phantom haptic feedback devices and a 
large-field of view stereoscopic display. Interested applicants 
should send CVs and contacts for references to David Knill at 
knill at cvs.rochester.edu.
