Lecturer (Assistant Professor) positions in Computer Vision/Graphics/Machine Learning - University of York, UK

The Department of Computer Science at the University of York, UK is recruiting 4 new Lecturers (US equivalent: Assistant Professor). These are permanent positions with an expectation of performing both world leading research and teaching in any area of computer science.

The Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) research group at York particularly welcomes applicants working in areas related to computer vision, machine learning and computer graphics. Candidates should hold a PhD in a relevant area and should have a track record of publishing in the top venues in their area such as TPAMI, IJCV, CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, SIGGRAPH, ICML, ICLR or NIPS.

Research groups in Computer Science at York are focussed into four themes. The most relevant to the CVPR group is “Beyond Human Vision: novel approaches and algorithms for computer vision, pattern recognition and face analysis”, though the Analytics (including AI) theme and Image analysis within the Healthcare theme are also relevant.

Collaboration opportunities

Besides collaborating with the five academics already working in vision, there is also an opportunity to collaborate with other research groups in the department (such as AI, Games and HCI), other departments in the university (we have active collaborations with Psychology, Environment and the York NeuroImaging Centre), the Digital Creativity Labs (http://www.digitalcreativity.ac.uk) and the Doctoral Training Centre in Intelligent Games and Game Intelligence (http://iggi.org.uk).
