Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Numerical and Mathematical Optimisation at the University of Queensland

Prof. Fred Roosta at the University of Queensland is recruiting for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to work on a project at the intersection of mathematical optimisation, numerical linear algebra, and machine learning/artificial intelligence. This project focuses on the development of novel theoretical frameworks alongside cutting-edge computational techniques for large-scale optimisation problems, with direct relevance to modern machine learning and AI applications. This project is in collaboration with Dr. Lindon Roberts (University of Melbourne).

The position is fixed-term for up to 2 years.

Applications are currently open, and close on 16 February.
