Applications are summoned for a 3-year completely funded PhD scholarship in the field of Adaptive Neural Networks.
Machine Learning solutions are critically reliant on of their training. Neural Networks can only achieve a precisely defined task and are not capable to learn a process or a function that evolve in context. To unravel these context changing issues, different methods have been proposed but they still prove inadequate in a number of aspects.
Neuroevolution is one of the most encouraging approaches, which constitutes a general and effective process that can be applied to a broad variety of issues. It presents numerous benefits with respect to alternative training techniques for neural networks. Hence, additional work needs to be done to progress adaptation of present neural networks models as well as Neuroevolution methods, so that they can become accustomed and develop in context.
Throughout your PhD project, you will explore germane solutions and improve and experiment with new adaptive models, which will be tested on appropriate benchmarks and some real-world applications such as healthcare, games and finance.
