Filed under: International Scholarships, Italy Fellowships, Italy Scholarships, Research Scholarships

A 1-year Research grant in “Novel algorithms and methodologies for fusing heterogeneous data from object tracking for understanding interactions between moving subjects within a guarded environment” will be available Department of Biophysical and Electronic Engineering (DIBE), University of Genova, Italy starting from January 2012.

Qualifications The successful candidate must hold a Master degree or equivalent qualifications (Laurea Vecchio Ordinamento or Laurea Specialistica degree for Italian applicants) in one of the following fields :
* Telecommunication Engineering
* Electronic Engineering
* Information Engineering
* Computer Science (or Laurea degree in Informatica) The candidate must have basic knowledge in the following topics:
* Signal Processing
* Pattern Recognition
* C/C++ programming
Fluency in spoken and written English is also a requirement.

The vIdeo and SIgnal Processing For Telecommunications (ISIP40) research team was founded in 1991 by Prof. Carlo Regazzoni starting from the expertise acquired in the Signal Processing and Telecommunications Group of Prof. Gianni Vernazza. Leader of the group is still Prof. Regazzoni, Full Professor at the University of Genova, and he can rely on the help of 1 Assistant Professor, 3 PhD students, 2 research grant co-operators and a number of external collaborators. Teaching activities allow to involve B.Sc. and M.Sc. students in the research activities of the team. Thanks to co-operations with industries and other university groups, two new joint laboratories has been created: Ambient Awareness Laboratory (A2Lab) and Cognitive Radio Laboratory, whose reaserch activities are focused on Cognitive Surveillance and Video Surveillance and on Cognitive Radio and Wideband Communications.

The research group has a number of active projects with national and international industries and academic partners. Ambient Intelligence area is oriented to provide increased personalized services to the user. This tasks is obtained by developing systems composed by heterogeneous sensors able to extract high-level features. Subsequently analysis, decision and personalized communications are the main steps in order to satisfy the users query depending to the context.

How to Apply: In the first phase the interested applicants should send their complete CV and two recommendation letters to Prof. Carlo Regazzoni, e-mail: carlo@dibe.unige.it

Scholarship Application Deadline: September 12, 2011.

A 3-year PhD scholarship in “Video processing within embodied multi-sensor cognitive artificial systems” will be available Department of Biophysical and Electronic Engineering (DIBE), University of Genova, Italy starting from January 2012.

Study Subject(s): Cognitive Surveillance
Course Level: PhD
Scholarship Provider: University of Genova
Scholarship can be taken at: Italy

Eligibility:
The successful candidate must hold a Master degree or equivalent qualifications (Laurea Vecchio Ordinamento or Laurea Specialistica degree for Italian applicants) in one of the following fields :

* Telecommunication Engineering
* Electronic Engineering
* Information Engineering
* Computer Science (or Laurea degree in Informatica)
The candidate must have basic knowledge in the following topics:
* Signal Processing
* Pattern Recognition
* C/C++ programming Fluency in spoken and written English is also a requirement.

The proposed PhD involves the study of problems mainly related to understanding of complex scenes from multisensor networks: focus will be on data association and state estimation methods for joint shape/color/position object tracking from multicamera data. Activities will be oriented to address the use of developed methods within bio-inspired cognitive artificial systems for physical security and telecommunications. Possibility will be open during the PhD to join on going funded research projects when available within the joint labs ISIP40 has with industries (e.g Technoaware, Telecom, ligurian industrial district SIIT).

How to Apply: In the first phase the interested applicants should send their complete CV and two recommendation letters to Prof. Carlo Regazzoni, e-mail: carlo-at-dibe.unige.it
