The laboratory is affiliated with the department of bio and brain engineering, brain and cognitive engineering program, and KAIST Institute for Health Science and Technology (KIHST).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The positions are initially appointed for one year, and may be extended for up to three years. We offer a competitive salary plus benefits. We also provide opportunities for working with our collaborators (refer to our website for more information).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The project, AI-human coevolution engine, aims to develop a framework that boosts human learning and inference performance. It requires a combination of model-based neuroimaging techniques and a design of various learning algorithms. Research topics include model-based\/model-free reinforcement learning, inductive\/deductive\/transitive inference, and one-shot learning. Details about the project is confidential, but the research proposal will be outlined during an interview.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Qualifications (type1):<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; PhD in cognitive neuroscience, computational neuroscience, or physics<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; prior experience in (model-based) fMRI analysis is preferred.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Qualifications (type2):<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; PhD in electrical engineering, computer science, or applied mathematics<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; strong quantitative background with expertise in stochastic neural network, deep learning, or reinforcement learning simulation<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The positions are open until filled.
