Multiple PhD Positions in Symmetries and Their Breaking in Deep Learning University of Amsterdam in Netherlands

AMLab at the University of Amsterdam is recruiting multiple PhD students for a research project on symmetries and their breaking in deep learning , supervised by Dr. Nabil Iqbal and supported by a Simons Foundation grant. This PhD opportunity sits at the intersection of machine learning, physics, and mathematics . The project asks how deep neural networks and modern architectures can be understood using general theoretical principles such as symmetry , universality , and ideas from statistical p...

The University of Amsterdam’s Amsterdam Machine Learning Lab (AMLab) is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for a two-year project on symmetries and their breaking in deep learning , supported by a Simons Foundation grant. The project investigates how complex capabilities emerge from simple neural-network components and aims to use mathematically principled insights to design more robust, efficient, controllable, and scientifically useful machine-learning systems. Working with Associate Profess...

AMLab at the University of Amsterdam is recruiting a 2-year postdoc to work with Nabil Iqbal on a Simons Foundation–supported project on symmetries and their breaking in deep learning . The position sits at the intersection of machine learning, theoretical physics, and mathematical modelling, with a focus on understanding how modern neural architectures develop useful emergent behaviour from simple components. The project asks fundamental questions about the dynamics of deep learning and aims to...
