Research Grant ("Bolsa De Investigação Para Mestre" ) – Bi/008/2024

Detalhes da Vaga

A research position for one Research Grant ("Bolsa de Investigação") is open at Instituto de Telecomunicações, in the scope of the Project LA/P/0109/2020. This project is funded by FCT- Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia.

Scientific Area:
Information and Data Sciences

Group:
Multimedia Signal Processing – Co

Admission Requirements:
Candidates must have a master's degree in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or related topics and be enrolled in a PhD program in electrical and computer engineering, intelligent systems, or related fields. Candidates must have proven knowledge of real-time software programming, Kalman filtering, embedded systems, and sensor fusion. Strong Matlab/Simulink, Python, and C/C++ programming knowledge is equally required. Skills in CUDA parallel programming, OpenCV image processing and Linux are greatly valued. Experience with hardware development and system integration, as well as SLAM and AI algorithms for image processing are preferred.

Work Objectives:
The objective of this project is to develop an embedded accelerator platform for real-time 3D modelling of underwater cave environments. To this end, VISLAM algorithms and datasets will be analyzed to address challenges such as turbidity and refraction, with AI-based visualization improvements explored. Therefore, the detailed objectives of this scholarship are:

Survey VISLAM algorithms and available datasets to assess performance limitations;

Develop an optimized embedded SLAM system using AI-driven techniques like 3D Gaussian Splatting;

Implement multi-sensor fusion algorithms to enhance pose estimation accuracy;

Validate the system through experiments with underwater datasets, ensuring efficient power consumption and real-time performance.

Applicable Legislation:
A fellowship will be celebrated according to the regulations defined by FCT, "Regulation of Instituto de Telecomunicações' fellowships" and "Estatuto do Bolseiro de Investigação", according to Law no. 123/2019, dated August 28 (Status of Scientific Research Fellow), in its actual redaction, and also by Fundação para Ciência e Tecnologia, I.P. Fellowship Regulation of Fundação para Ciência e Tecnologia. For direct access to the FCT RBI go to the following link here .

Place of Work:
The work will be developed at the premises of Instituto de Telecomunicações at Coimbra, under the supervision of Prof. Gabriel Falcão.

Duration:
6 months, with the possibility of renewal. Start date: 15th of December 2024 or soon thereafter.

Monthly Salary:
1.259,64 € (net), according to the table of grant amounts awarded directly by FCT for positions held in Portugal ( www.fct.pt/apoios/bolsas/valores ). The payment will be made by bank transfer.

Selection Criteria:

C1 (50%) - The candidate will be selected based on their CV

C2 (40%) - Demonstrated experience in tasks related to the work plan of this project

C3 (10%) - Oral and written fluency in English

Each criteria, and the final classification F will be evaluated in a scale (0-20). The candidates will be ordered according to:
F = C1 x 50% + C2 x 40% + C3 x 10%. In case of a tie, the tied candidates will be ordered according to C1, then C2... The Jury has the right to not admit any of the candidates that applied for this position whenever they consider that no candidate meets the minimum requirements for the position.

Jury:

Prof. Gabriel Falcão Paiva Fernandes, Universidade de Coimbra (President of the jury)

Prof. Vitor Manuel Mendes da Silva, Universidade de Coimbra

Prof. Marco Alexandre Cravo Gomes, Universidade de Coimbra

Prof. Fernando Manuel Santos Perdigao, Universidade de Coimbra (Substitute)

Communication of the Results:
Results will be published at the Instituto de Telecomunicações, in Coimbra. The selected candidate will be notified by email.

Required Documents:
Cover letter explaining the interest in the position and relevant background, detailed Curriculum Vitae with transcripts, Copy of the relevant certificates (Copy of the Degree Certificate(s), if applicable); and proof of enrollment (or proof of acceptance) in a higher education course or declaration of honour confirming that complies with the conditions to enroll in the required/preferable higher education course. NOTE: The proof of enrollment in a higher education course must be made until the contract is signed. Apply online clicking on the "Apply Now" button in this form here . E-mail submissions will not be considered. (The cover letter and the CV are mandatory documents in the online application platform). All the selection process is conducted through the IT web portal. No actions outside this platform are valid.
