PhD position in Machine Learning and Physical Simulation

At Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna of Pisa, Italy, there are 2 PhD scholarships funded by my ERC Starting Grant ALPS - AI-based Learning for Physical Simulation. In this project, which will start next September, we aim to build algorithms that can learn physical models starting from experimental data. We use a combination of machine learning, discrete mathematical theories and high-performance simulation. Our algorithms will assist researchers to address scientific challenges in human health and soft bio-inspired robotics, and will help engineers in design/optimization tasks, also to build sustainable energy technology. More information about the project can be found in the file attached to this blog post.

We are especially looking for talented candidates with background in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering or Computer Science. Choose ALPS as your research topic in the online application. Deadline: 1 June 2022
