*Post-Doc Position at INESC-ID Lisbon :: MIning MUlti-source and
MUlti-modal geo-referenced information (MIMU)*

Applicants are invited for the position of Post-Doctoral Research Fellow as
part of a joint research project between INESC-ID and NOVA.LINCS, related
to the general field of Geospatial Artificial Intelligence.

The project, titled MIning MUlti-source and MUlti-modal geo-referenced
information (MIMU), focuses on the study of machine learning approaches for
the discovery and mapping of innovative geographic knowledge through the
analysis and processing of large-scale volunteered data (e.g.,
geo-referenced multimedia contents such as images and textual descriptions,
posted on social-media platforms like Flickr, Twitter, or Foursquare), in
combination with more traditional sources (e.g., remote- sensing products
available in the context of initiatives like ESA's Sentinel/Copernicus
programme, and/or tables with socio-demographic data made available by
statistical offices). Ongoing activities within the context of the project
include the usage of deep learning methods for:

- Segmentation of high-resolution aerial imagery, e.g. in the context of
mapping flooding extents  in urban regions.
- Proximate sensing and mapping with ground-level imagery;
- Remote sensing image captioning;
- Geographical text analysis.

Requirements:

A PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Geomatics, Electrical
Engineering, Geographical Information Sciences, or other related fields.
Preference will be given to candidates with previous experience in data
science and machine learning, and with an established track record
evidenced by publication in top quality journals and conferences.
