Job description
The Visualization cluster is looking for an enthusiastic and
motivated data visualization or visual analytics researcher, who wants
to pursue an academic career and is fascinated by foundations and
applications of visualization.
Are you the researcher we are looking for?
Are you the researcher we are looking for?
We look for an enthusiastic researcher that has deep interest in the
study of visual representations and interaction with the purpose to
optimally join forces of human and machine. The researcher should enjoy
the transfer of knowledge and experience to new generations of students
through teaching, and guiding them doing research and solving real-world
problems.
The cluster focuses on the development of new methods and techniques
to explore and present large data sets. The focus is on data
visualization and
visual analytics. We study how to provide insight in
large, heterogeneous data sets, such as combinations of multivariate
data, high dimensional data, sophisticated imaging data, network data,
event data, and geospatial data, all often time varying. We investigate
how to incorporate methods from statistics and AI to support human
analysis, understanding, and decision making. Visual analytics for AI
can provide more effective and efficient model development, and more
trust and confidence on AI based decisions.
We develop novel approaches that go from fundamental research to
application oriented visual designs. We cooperate with specialists from a
variety of application domains, including health care, machine
learning, bioinformatics, forensics, and fraud detection; both from
academia and industry (e.g., Philips).
The visualization cluster (https://research.tue.nl/en/organisations/visualization)
at TU/e has a strong track record in data visualization and visual
analytics. It has generated award winning contributions at major
visualization conferences (IEEE VIS, IEEE InfoVis, IEEE VAST, EuroVis);
successful start-up companies (MagnaView/ProcessGold, SynerScope, and
AnalyzeData); and a number of techniques that are used on a large scale
world-wide. The visualization cluster participates actively in the newly
crafted Eindhoven AI System Institute (EAISI) and Data Science
initiatives at TU/e.
The main tasks would be:
- Perform research in data visualization or visual analytics;
- Develop and teach courses in data visualization or visual analytics;
- Acquire research funding from (inter-)national funding bodies or industry.;
- Supervise student projects at Bachelor, Master, PDEng, and PhD level; in Eindhoven and also as active contribution to our joint activities in 's-Hertogenbosch.
We encourage applications in the area of data visualization or visual analytics.
