As a follow up to an earlier advert, the MIND RA post is now officially
being advertised.
MIND (http://dis.shef.ac.uk/mark/mind/)
A 27-month multi-site EU funded project investigating the searching of
multiple multimedia digital libraries (i.e. search and meta search engines)
over a wide area network. Sheffield’s main task focuses on searching
libraries of speech documents. Emphasis will be on information retrieval
and interface design over actual speech recognition. The fusing of results
from multiple libraries will also be examined. Candidates with a relevant
post graduate degree with some or all of the following experience should
apply: Java or C++ programming; HCI and user testing; information
retrieval; and speech recognition. Pay range £16,775 - £21,435.
The department of Information Studies at Sheffield has consistently gained
the highest possible research rating and has a long tradition of high
quality Information Retrieval research. It has strong links with the
internationally renowned natural language processing and speech research
groups within the Computer Science department.
