Post doctoral research fellow
We are seeking a postdoctoral research fellow in the area of reinforcement learning theory to work on projects related to the performance analysis of entropy-regularized reinforcement learning algorithms. Such algorithms have received lots of attention lately from the theoretical side of the RL community, although many limitations of the framework remain challenging to address. Most importantly, existing methods have trouble adapting to large state spaces and accommodating forms of function approximation, especially for misspecified models. The aim of this project is to develop better approaches for handling misspecification and design algorithms with suitable performance guarantees under adverse conditions. Besides theoretical guarantees, particular attention will be paid to the practicality of the developed methods, and specifically to their implementability in modern deep reinforcement learning frameworks. The successful candidate needs to have a strong background in reinforcement learning theory, as demonstrated with papers published on the topic in top machine learning venues (e.g., ICML, NeurIPS, COLT, ALT, AISTATS).
It is a temporary full time contract in our Poblenou Campus.The starting date is July 27th until the end of september 2021.

2 PHD POSITIONS IN COMPUTATIONAL BRAIN AND CARDIAC DEVELOPMENT AND REMODELLING
PhD project 1: Development of a multi-scale model of the cardiovascular system of a foetus with aortic coarctation
The aim of this project is the development of a multi-scale model of the cardiovascular system of a fetus with aortic coarctation (and related defects such as ventricular or atrial septal defects), including also the implementation of a tissue growth model to be able to assess the cardiac growth and remodelling during development. It will consist on a 0D model of the circulation, including all the relevant vessels and vascular beds, potentially coupled to a simple 3D model of the fetal heart. Then, a simplified mathematical model of cardiac growth and remodelling will be incorporated in order to study the effects of hemodynamic and mechanical alterations under aortic coarctation into cardiac development.
PhD project 2: The Heart-Brain axis, or There and Back again: the journey towards brain development traverses vascular territories
The aim of this project is to create a computational modelling platform, linking heart and brain systems, to test the influence of mechanical forces originating from vascular anatomy, haemodynamics and metabolic characteristics on brain development in normal and abnormal conditions. This research will open up opportunities for understanding systems-based mechanisms of other conditions affecting heart and brain such as congenital heart disease, schizophrenia, autism, neurodegenerative diseases or neurocardiology applications.

PhD students in the area of reinforcement learning theory
The AI and machine learning group is seeking two PhD students in the area of reinforcement learning theory to work on projects related to the performance analysis of entropy-regularized reinforcement learning algorithms. Such algorithms have received lots of attention lately from the theoretical side of the RL community, although many limitations of the framework remain challenging to address. Most importantly, existing methods have trouble adapting to large state spaces and accommodating forms of function approximation, especially for misspecified models. The aim of this project is to develop better approaches for handling misspecification and design algorithms with suitable performance guarantees under adverse conditions.
Application deadline: 23/09/2021
PhD Candidate: Computational model of guided growth in immature skeleton for custom-made correction of deformities.
The objective of the present PhD project is to create a computational model of physical growth that allows to customize the treatment of a specific deformity through individualized designs of implant and the ability of the devices to correct the deformity with the greatest efficiency and the shortest time. It is part of a larger scale project that combines the physeal surgery in experimental animal (pig) and the computer development of the simulation model of physial growth, in collaboration with the children Hospital Sant Joan de Deu, Barcelona. The computational model development stands for the core of the proposed PhD thesis at BCN MedTech.

This is a short-term research assistant position on the topic of algorithmic fairness and debiasing of graph embeddings. Specifically, the work consists on performing research along two axes -- first, to identify ways in which the use of graph embeddings in tasks such as node classification, link prediction, and graph-based recommendations, may introduce biases due to correlations between nodes’ personal, sensitive attributes and their connections to other nodes in the graph, and two, to develop new methods that can mitigate such biases when detected without severely impacting the performance of embedding algorithms along traditional measures such as accuracy.

Research Support Staff at CMTech
Applications are invited for part time Research Assistant in the CMTech group led by Prof. Xavier Binefa, Pompeu Fabra University.
Facial expressions have attracted a large piece of research with the end to extract the emotional estate of the people. Recently some works, in the field of affective computing, want to mix these expressions with physiological signals in order to better characterize this emotional estate. In this framework, we want to use Deep Learning technologies to characterize the emotional estate in discrete and continuous (valence/arousal) representation; construct a system, able to run in mobiles and appliances with a low computing power; send the characterization obtained to a server with a database and do analytics.
