Posted on January 19, 2024
Researchers at USC Information Sciences Institute are looking to hire a master’s student to support a DARPA funded research project. In this position, the candidate will take signal processing applications such as filtering, signal detection, or neural network inference that have been written in Python or MATLAB and convert them to the StreamIt (https://groups.csail.mit.edu/cag/streamit/) programming language. After conversion, the candidate will conduct a series of unit tests to confirm that the converted application produces correct results. Preference will be given to candidates with signal processing background and have demonstrated high proficiency with Python and MATLAB. Prior experience with the StreamIt programming language is not necessary, but any background would be highly valued.
AI Developer - Center on Knowledge Graphs - AI Companions for Learning Data Science (position # 1071)Apply Now
This position is available immediately.
Posted on November 29, 2022
Our team is working on Knowledge Needed in Context (KNIC). KNIC is a project about building AI companions that learn from experienced data scientists (knowledge producers) and help novices learn new data science skills (knowledge consumers). Students working on the project will work on several broad tasks such as creating a knowledge store focused on data science, identifying when to ask a knowledge producer a question (and what question to ask), and what information to provide to a knowledge consumer to help them learn the new task, and when to supply it. Ideal candidates will have expertise in Python, NLP tools (huggingface, PyTorch), and Web crawling/extraction (BeautifulSoup, spaCy).
