PostDoc Position in Signal Processing for Cybersecurity

The School of Information Security (SIS) at the Korea University is offering a position for a postdoctoral fellow who will work closely with Dr. Jiwon Yoon (http://signal.korea.ac.kr) at the statistical signal processing, machine learning and cybersecurity. Some sample topics include:

Bayesian inference (mainly Monte Carlo methodology, ABC algorithm, MCMC, SMC and extra)
Signal Processing and machine learning over encrypted domain (eg. Fully homomorphic encryption and differential privacy)
Cryptanalysis using side channel signal processing (eg. Power signal analysis)
Automatic detection of unknown objects in the satellite images using deep learning
Data mining for open source intelligence (OSINT)

This position is expected to last from one to three years. The earliest start date is in March 2018. The candidate is expected to have a PhD in electrical engineering, computer science or applied mathematics and a strong publication record in signal processing, machine learning or information security. The candidate will work closely with Dr. Jiwon Yoon and will develop a strong research profile that will enable him/her to obtain a good faculty position after this postdoctoral experience.

For more information about Jiwon Yoon's research interests, please visit his homepage at: http://signal.korea.ac.kr

Salary will be extremely competitive and will be commensurate with the candidate abilities, potential, and track record.

Applicants should submit a detailed CV and a soft copy of his/her phd thesis to Dr. Jiwon Yoon at jiwon_yoon@korea.ac.kr.

PhD scholarship

We have an open PhD position at the Digital Mathematics Research Group (DIMA) in Data Quality control.

Since the mid-nineties, cultural institutions have undoubtedly entered the digital age. In Belgium, the government adopted in 2004 a first digitization plan for a ten-year period and in 2014 a second phase was launched. The issue of quality control was one of the major obstacles in the first phase of digitization projects. Indeed, it appeared that many projects had underestimated the extent of this step both in human and technical terms in the overall process of digitization. However, it is clear that quality control is an essential component to every stage of a digitization project if you want to ensure the integrity and consistency of files and data produced, as well as their long-term conservation.

The goal of the PhD is to address the issue of quality control in two stages. First, by focusing on methodological aspects, proposing guidelines applicable in the treatment of heritage collections. Then, by developing technical tools that automate tasks related to quality control or support the manual check. You will work on two types of collections: the digitized collections of the Royal Library of Belgium that will address the problems with textual documents and the photographic collections of the CEGESOMA which provide a set of iconographic documents.

Requirements: Master in mathematics, computer science or engineering with a strong interest in image quality.
