Postdoc Senior position in PAVIS at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia 
(Ref: PAVIS-PDS 1)

The PAVIS department at Fondazione Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia - IIT 
(www.iit.it) is looking for a highly qualified researcher in the field 
of Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition, Machine Learning, and Image 
Analysis. The main mission of PAVIS (Pattern Analysis and Computer 
Vision) is to design and develop innovative video surveillance systems, 
characterized by the use of highly-functional smart sensors and advanced 
video analytics features.
PAVIS has also an active role in supporting the research facilities in 
IIT providing solutions to life-scientists in Neuroscience, Drug 
Discovery and Development and Nanophysics.
To this end, the group is involved in activities concerning computer 
vision and pattern recognition, machine learning, multimodal data 
analysis and sensor fusion, sensors networks, and embedded computer 
vision systems. The lab will pursue this goal by working collaboratively 
and in cooperation with external private and public partners.

This call aims at consolidating PAVIS expertise in the following 
research areas:
- low-level video analytics: signal/image processing, tagging and 
tracking (individuals, groups, crowd, etc.);
- high-level video analytics: behaviour analysis, activity recognition, 
reasoning paradigms, graphical models.
- Multi-modal sensor fusion, sensor networks, localisation and 
cooperative 3D reconstruction in heterogeneous networks.

Applicants research experience and qualification on computer vision and 
pattern recognition/machine learning are clearly a must, and evidence of 
top quality research on the above specified areas in the form of 
published papers and/or patents are mandatory.
As a further mandatory skill, the candidate should be able to attract 
international funding opportunities and have experience in project 
proposal preparation and coordination at European and/or international 
level.

The postdoctoral position is up to 4 years starting at June 2012. 
Candidates should have a Ph.D. in computer vision, machine learning, 
signal processing, image analysis or related areas and research 
experience at postdoctoral level of at least three years.
The submission deadline for sending your application is the 22nd of 
April 2012.
The salary will be commensurate to qualification and experience and in 
line to that of the research institutes in the rest of Europe.
Further details and informal enquires can be made by email to pavis at iit.it

Completed application forms along with a curriculum listing all 
publications, a pdf of your most representative publications and a 
research statement describing your previous research experience and 
outlining its relevance to these topics should by email to pavis at iit.it 
indicating the reference number: PAVIS-PDS 1.
Please, if possible, also indicate three independent references inside 
the CV or the email.
