Opportunities

Our lab  has ongoing projects with interesting open problems for students (undergraduates, MSc, PhD) and researchers (Post-doc, Sabbatical) willing to join us. There are interesting opportunities for fellowships in these levels (including Post-doc, Young Researcher and Sabbatical; see the details in the FAPESP description in the previous links). Note that the fellowship conditions are competitive in international levels. Please do not hesitate in contacting me in case you become interested in working with us. Students and collaborators from all countries are quite welcome!!!! (e.g. see the standard deviation of my co-authors :-) Come South, young scientist! Current open opportunities:

• Learning salient elements from videos using structural and temporal information
• Neuronal morphology using image analysis
• Astronomical image analysis (Profs. Nina Hirata and Cláudia Oliveira)
• Deep learning for face detection
