PhD Studentships

There is currently 1 open position for PhD students in the groups.

Application Deadline

01 April 2022

Details

The goals of the research project are to develop automated measuring methods equipped with a self-learning Artificial Intelligence (AI) that will be able to detect workpiece anomalies in the machining of their digital twins and use the information to ultimately improve the measuring of workpieces. The research programme involves two specific projects designed to study AI-based measuring solutions. This project will investigate the AI development and examine decision-making for reliable virtual measurements.

Academic criteria

Candidates should hold or expect to gain a Master's level qualification in a relevant subject area. We particularly welcome applicants with a computer science degree and an interest in applying machine learning and AI techniques to real scientific problems.
