[Komogortsev, Oleg V]

POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN EYE MOVEMENT BIOMETRICS
Texas State University, Human Computer Interaction Laboratory, San Marcos, Texas
One postdoctoral position is available to work on eye movement biometrics under supervision of Dr. Komogortsev at Texas State University.
Duties and Responsibilities: assist with research associated with improving the state of the art in the eye movement biometrics domain. That will include improving the biometrics accuracy of the existing eye movement driven-biometric algorithms, developing new algorithms, performing liveness detection studies, working with different oculomotor plant models and representations of brain activity related to the eye movements. The work will entail modeling, coding, developing and conducting user studies, and publishing.
Qualifications: The candidates are expected to have a doctoral degree in either in Computer Science, Mathematics, Psychology or a closely related area and a good track record in scientific research. Good English proficiency is a necessary prerequisite. Good programing skills in such languages as MATLAB, C/C++, C# are expected. Previous experience with eye movement related research is a big plus. Strong background in mathematics or machine learning is a plus.
