Several open positions are available for PhD students at Velni’s Lab in the School of ECE at Univ. of Georgia. The positions are available as early as January 2020. The topics and the desired background are as follows:

1. Learning-based and Uncertainty-aware Control for Complex Systems

The objective of this project is to develop fundamental tools for real-time (and data-driven) model learning and predictive control of nonlinear and stochastic systems, where uncertainties are also learned, and apply them to several practical applications. The modeling and control design would be done in the linear parameter-varying (LPV) framework.
Strong background in machine learning and model predictive control (MPC) is required. Prior knowledge of LPV systems modeling and/or control is desired.


2. Development of a Big Data Analytics Pipeline for Precision Agriculture

The general goal of this project is to utilize and implement real-time learning tools (like Faster RCNN and YOLO) for a variety of applications in smart farming, and in particular in high-throughput phenotyping.
Strong background in machine/deep learning theory and application and big data analytics is required.


3. Stochastic Hybrid Control Design for Mass Deployment of Autonomous Vehicles

The general goal of the project is to develop a model-based stochastic hybrid systems theoretic approach to coordinate a large group of connected and automated vehicles. In particular, the project will develop a stochastic MPC framework accounting for probabilistic uncertainties in disturbances (e.g., human actions) and vehicles’ operating mode transitions.
Strong background in hybrid control systems is required. Prior knowledge of statistical machine learning is desired.


4. Anomaly Detection in Cyber-human-physical Systems using Statistical Learning

The general goal of the project is to develop distributed approaches for detecting anomalies (faults or attacks) in cyber-physical systems, and in particular in smart energy systems. The development of theory and implementation of distributed real-time learning approaches is the goal, where the prior knowledge of the underlying physics-based models will be embedded in the appropriate data-driven method and used for detecting anomalies.
Strong background in graph theory and machine learning is required. Prior knowledge of domain (e.g., power systems) is desired.

貌似楼主暴露身份了 :-D
看lab的publication蛮强的 (3+篇的Automatica), 但是似乎和一般意义上的machine learning没什么关系呢

对滴，我们是不一般的machine learning，是在上述项目涉及的领域的应用。

To apply, please send an application package to javadm@uga.edu. The application should be submitted as a single PDF and include a cover letter (explicitly describing the candidate background and how they fit the open positions), a detailed CV (including the list of publications), and unofficial copies of their BS (and, if applicable, MS) transcripts.

方便加楼主联系方式吗？微信或者QQ都可~
