ECE Postdoctoral Fellow

** Job Description
** We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Fellow to conduct research in machine learning and neural network architecture design, with a focus on computational efficiency, robustness, and reliability in constrained environments. The successful candidate will work on the development and evaluation of robust classifiers, building upon our novel Pseudo-Invertible Neural Networks layers

Responsibilities

Conduct Innovative Research:
The postdoctoral fellow will be responsible for conducting cutting edge research in developing novel robust classifier architectures, with an emphasis on robustness
· Design and implement computationally efficient neural network architectures for robust classification
· Develop and evaluate Psi-NN-based models that enable classifiers to function as autoencoders without additional decoder networks
· Conduct experiments, analyze results, and benchmark performance under computational constraints
· Collaborate with faculty, graduate students, and research staff
· Publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals and conferences
· Mentor graduate and undergraduate researchers as appropriate

Required Qualifications
· Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related field
· Strong background in machine learning and neural networks
· Familiarity with pseudo-invertible network architecture (Psi-NN)

Preferred Qualifications
· Experience with PyTorch for deep learning research and experimentation
· Familiarity with autoencoders, inverse or bidirectional models, robustness, or adversarial learning
· Experience designing or optimizing models for computational efficiency or resource-constrained environment
