The computer science department at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) is looking for an outstanding postdoctoral scholar to do research in basic and applied machine learning. The successful candidate will work closely with Professor Charles Elkan on an interdisciplinary project funded mainly by a gift from Intel. The funding is to support innovative analyses of massive data collected by Intel and its partners concerning how personal computers are used. This position is for an independent individual who is enthusiastic about launching a world-class research career. Applicants should have a strong record of high quality published research in machine learning and/or related fields. They should be motivated to be the main author of papers to be published at top venues such as JMLR and PNAS. They should also have strong implementation skills and be eager to develop well-engineered software for use by practitioners and by other researchers.
