Postdoc in Automatic Control with focus on motion planning under uncertainty
The Division of Automatic Control at Linkoping University has a vacant post-doctoral position in the area of methods for motion planning under uncertainty for autonomous systems. The research aims at developing improved methods for motion planning that better maintain safety and performance also in cases when non-negligible disturbances and model errors are present. To achieve this, the project will investigate parameterized robust primitives, real-time optimization as an integrated part of the planning, learning from previously visited environments and from other agents, and to use high-performance computations on clusters to solve more advanced problem formulations. The position is financed by the strategic research environment ELLIIT. The position is a full-time research position.
The applicant should have good knowledge in automatic control, optimal control, and optimization. Furthermore, good programming skills are required, preferably including Python and C++. Knowledge in motion planning is desirable. The applicant should have good cooperation skills, should be able to present research well both orally and in writing, and be able to work independently. The position requires a doctorate or an equivalent degree from a foreign university. The doctorate shall have been obtained no longer than three years before the expiration date of the application.
