Post-doc & doc opportunities with Jeffrey Bowers and Colin Davis at the University of Bristol, UK

< div class="p1" > < span class="s1" > A postdoctoral Research Associate (Post-Doc) and PhD. student are required for the Leverhulme Trust-funded project entitled “When and Why Do Neural Networks Learn Selective Codes?”. In this project we aim to characterise the tasks and conditions in which a range of neural networks, including popular “deep networks”, learn highly selective representations. To this end we will train networks on various tasks and th en carry out analyses of the hidden units to determine the nature of the learned representations. The results of these simulations will provide clues as to why neurons in brains often respond in a highly selective manner. & nbsp; You woud be working with Jeffrey Bowers and Colin Davis at the University of Bristol, UK. Neither the post-doc nor PhD student needs to be from the EU, but the PhD post only pays for EU fees (plus a stipend). & nbsp; For more information see: < /span > < /div > < div class="p1" > < br / > < /div > < div class="p1" > < br / > < /div > < div class="p2" > < span class="s2" > < a href="http://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/ANM863/research-associate/" > http://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/ANM863/research-associate/ < /a > < /span > < /div > < div class="p1" > < br / > < /div > < div class="p1" > < br / > < /div > < br / > < div class="p2" > < span class="s2" > < a href="http://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/ANM389/phd-studentship-selective-representation/" > http://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/ANM389/phd-studentship-selective-representation/ <...
