Interconnected Resource-aware Intelligent Systems (IRIS) at Eindhoven University of Technology has the following Phd position on development of edge-AI for Internet-of-Things (IoT) based embedded health monitoring systems. Within this project, we will investigate joint development of distributed AI models and associated communication patterns that are resource efficient. The targeted AI models will take data from multiple sensors and will use user's devices (e.g., smartphone) as a smart hub to make more detailed analysis of user's data locally, without the need for sharing sensitive data, e.g., with a cloud service.

The successful candidate is expected to:

• Perform scientific research in the domains described above.
• Publish results at high-quality venues.
• Collaborate with other group and faculty members.
• Collaborate with selected academic and industrial partners.
• Attend project meetings and contribute to deliverables and project outcome.
• Assist with educational tasks (e.g. assist courses, co-supervise Master students).

• You have a master degree in Computer Science, Data Science, (Applied) Mathematics, Embedded Systems, or a related field.
• You have a strong background in machine learning, and specifically deep learning. You have some knowledge of IoT technology and networks.
• You have good programming skills and experience (C, C++, MATLAB, Python, etc).
• You have strong analytical and implementation skills.
• You have good communicative skills and are eager to work as part of a research team.
• You are creative and ambitious.
• You have good command of the English language (Dutch language is not required).
