This is a two-year fixed term position and is available for an immediate start.<br class=""><br class="">The successful candidate will spend 80% of time at Oxford and 20% at NPL (London) developing a joint research project. The PDRA will also have an affiliation with the Turing Institute, the UK’s national institute for data science, allowing further interactions with the UK data science community. The research project sits at the intersection of machine learning and optimization, aiming to develop outstanding research in two directions: improving optimization aspects for efficient deep learning, and employing statistical machine learning techniques for improving the scalability of optimization methods for difficult problems.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">More information, further particulars and how to apply can be found at:</div><div class=""><br class=""><a href="https://www.maths.ox.ac.uk/node/33571" class="">https://www.maths.ox.ac.uk/node/33571</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Closing Date: <b class="">Monday, October 21, 2019 - 12:00.</b><br class=""><div class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="">Please do not hesitate to email me with any queries you may have about the post.
