Topic: Deep Learning and Multiresolution Analysis for Audio
Location: Nantes, France
Start Date: negotiable
Duration: 12 months (extensible)
Our project: MuReNN (multi-resolution neural networks)
– Fundamental research in machine learning.
– Multiresolution analysis (discrete wavelet transforms).
– Parameter efficiency, sample efficiency, interpretability.
– Applications to audio: detection, classification, clustering, segmentation, denoising, and synthesis.
You will :
– Conduct fundamental research and write scientific papers.
– Develop software and perform numerical simulations.
– Present your findings at international conferences and congresses.
– Contribute to our open-source library
Required skills:
– Scientific curiosity is essential.
– An ability to critique, explore, and communicate the state of the art in research is required. Experience in scientific outreach is helpful but not required.
– Fluency in scientific English, both written and spoken, is required. Fluency in French is helpful but not required.
– Basic knowledge of signal processing, such as convolution, the discrete Fourier transform, and subsampling, is required. Knowledge of wavelet theory is helpful but not required.
– Basic knowledge of probability theory, such as Gaussian vectors, the central limit theorem, and Markov’s inequality, is required. Knowledge of random matrix theory and learning theory is helpful but not required.
– Experience in data science, ideally in audio or speech processing, is required. – Experience with deep neural networks is helpful but not required.
– Ability to program in Python, use a command line, and use version control (git). Experience with embedded computing, high-performance computing (GPU-based computing), or parallel computing is helpful but not required.
Why join us?
– Be part of CNRS, the French national center for scientific research.
– Access to high-performance computing infrastructure, including GPU-based computing.
– Collaborate with experts from Lyon, Vienna, and beyond as part of the ANR MuReNN project.
– Salary: €3,021 to €4,208 gross monthly depending on experience.
– Potentially renewable beyond 12 months.
