PhD in computational mathematics, NTU, Singapore

Applications for Postdoc Positions & PhD Graduate Students
(Computational Math Group)

Applicants are invited to join the computational mathematics and
scientific computing group in NTU (Nanyang Technological University)
on interdisciplinary computational imaging, computer vision and
computer graphics, at the boundaries between mathematics, computer
science and engineering. This group has been funded for four years to
build a national resource to explore new mathematical and
computational methods for PDE-based image processing and analysis,
surface processing involving compression, reconstruction, remeshing
and encoding for Interactive Digital Media development.

We hereby invite applications for 5 Postdoc positions and up to 9 PhD
scholars.

All positions are available from December 1 2007.
Review process will start October 1 2007 and continue until all
positions are filled.
The postdoc positions will be granted for a period of one year and can
be extended up to three years after appropriate probation.
The Ph. D scholarships will be granted for a period of 4 years.

Requirements for the Postdoc Positions

The postdoc candidates will be working with image processing and
computer visualization related to surfaces. Candidates having
experience with numerical simulations for partial differential
equations, or in any area of medical imaging, image processing,
computer vision, computer graphics and data compression are
encouraged to apply. Salary will be commensurate with experience and
background.

Requirements for the PhD Scholars

The PhD candidate should have taken sufficient courses in applied
mathematics related to numerical approximations or have a strong
course record in image processing, medical imaging, optimization or
computer vision. Experience with numerical simulations and project
work is an advantage. The candidate is supposed to finish a PhD degree
in applied mathematics within 4 years.
