_Marie Curie Fellowship in Computer Vision – Reading Systems_

The Computer Vision Centre is looking for a young researcher with 
excellent academic track record to work in the area of reading systems.

The successful candidate will work on unconstrained reading systems, 
capable to detect and recognise textual information in images in 
challenging conditions such as urban scenery, born-digital images, 
videos and images recorded with wearable devices etc.

The Marie Curie fellow is expected to align his research to the research 
priorities of the host group and develop his research plan in one or 
more of the following areas: scene text localisation, object proposals 
for text, script identification, word spotting, language models, deep 
network architectures for robust reading, camera-based document image 
analysis, and human-document interaction among others.

The Marie Curie fellow will become a member of the Computer Vision 
Centre, in Barcelona, Spain, a research institute comprising more than 
100 researchers and support staff, dedicated to computer vision research 
and knowledge transfer. The fellow will join a vibrant team or 
researchers pertaining to Consolidated Research Groups (SGRs) within the 
Catalan research system, with background on machine learning, reading 
systems, scene classification and object recognition.

_Candidate’s profile _

A PhD in computer science or a related field is required. The applicants 
must have experience in pattern recognition and machine learning 
techniques, and be able to demonstrate strong analytical and programming 
skills.

Prior research experience in computer vision, and publications in top 
computer vision journals and conferences will be highly valued.

The applicants are expected to be fluent in both oral and written 
communication in English. They should work well in a team, while 
demonstrating initiative and independence.

Candidates should have been awarded their PhD before the call deadline 
and must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, 
studies, etc) in Spain for more than twelve months in the three years 
immediately prior to the call deadline.

/The official application period will open during September 2016./
