Further information
At Seeing Machines, technology leadership is paramount to our commercial operations. We have a leading team of Algorithm Scientists who take research and develop it into fully implemented and working commercial solutions.
The Seeing Machines - ANU PhD Fellowship Program is seeking two students to contribute to the development of algorithms to measure and characterize driver awareness, activities and interactions with other vehicle occupants using internally mounted multi-model sensors.
In particular, we are looking for students to address the following challenges:
- Deep Learning for Anomaly Detection.
- Deep Learning for Image Super-Resolution.
- Neural Architecture Search including Low-precision Quantisation Aware Training.
These outcomes will contribute to worldwide traffic safety regulations and deliver state-of-the-art technology to improve safety and convenience for the cars of the future!
THE PROGRAM - Doctor of Philosophy, College of Engineering and Computer Science, ANU
The program will run for 3.5 years, where our PhD students will work with cutting-edge deep learning methods and state-of-the-art multi-model sensors.
