Postdoctoral Researcher in Generative AI for Humanoid Assistive Robots KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden

KTH Royal Institute of Technology is offering a postdoctoral position within the newly launched SAInt: Situated Agentic Interaction project at the Department of Speech, Music and Hearing (TMH) in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. The project is Promobilia-funded and sits in an internationally recognized research environment in speech and language technology, with a strong focus on multimodal interaction with social robots. The project aims to develop and evaluate humanoi...

Postdoctoral Researcher position in NLP and Human-Centered AI at the University of St.Gallen (School of Computer Science), Switzerland, within the SNSF-funded CREST-AI project led by Prof. Christina Niklaus . The project focuses on user modeling , LLM reasoning , neuro-symbolic NLP , semantic representation, and interpretable models of users’ beliefs, uncertainty, and misconceptions from dialogue. A key goal is to develop human-centered evaluation methods for personalized AI and adaptive explana...

Elisa Kreiss is recruiting a PhD student to join the UCLA Communication department and the UCLA NLP group at the University of California, Los Angeles. The research sits at the intersection of computational linguistics, natural language processing, multimodal machine learning, and cognitive science. The project explores how models learn from text and image data and how that learning gives rise to the behaviors observed in trained models. Possible research directions include studying how post-tra...

The Faculty of Humanities at the University of Helsinki is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to join the Multimodality Research Group in the Department of Languages. The position is part of an ERC-funded project led by Professor Tuomo Hiippala and focuses on developing novel methods and corpora for studying multimodality: how people communicate through combinations of multiple expressive modes. The project studies everyday cultural artefacts such as school textbooks, news broadcasts, diagrams...

PhD project: Learning to communicate and collaborate: emergent multimodal communication in embodied agents The University of Southampton is offering a competition-funded Doctor of Philosophy project in embodied agents, emergent communication and collaborative robotics. The research will investigate how embodied agents learn to communicate through available modalities—including vision, sound, touch and gesture—so they can collaborate with one another and with people without relying on a pre-desig...
