PhD-position: Machine Learning & Renewable Energy (m/f/d, E13 TV-L; 65%) Faculty of Science, Department of Computer ScienceBewerbungsfrist : 20.04.2021 The Department of Computer Science at the Eberhard Karls University Tübingen invites applications for a position in the Cluster of Excellence ‘Machine Learning: New Perspectives for Science’: 1 Doctoral-Position (m/f/d, E13 TV-L; 65%)The position is available immediately (but start date is negotiable), the contract is initially for three years, and remunerated according to the German salary scale 13 TVL. Providing heating and hot water for buildings contributes considerably to the carbon dioxide emissions. Solar thermal systems (STS) could substantially reduce these emissions. The project will use machine learning on existing data-logs of STS and will combine those data with weather data to optimize efficiency and maintenance of the systems. The PhD position is embedded in a joint initiative of four projects that all focus on spatiotemporal environmental data (project: ‘Modeling and Understanding Spatiotemporal Environmental Interactions’) within the Cluster of Excellence ‘Machine Learning: New Perspectives for Science’. The project partners for our subproject are:
Applicants must hold a MSc-degree (or equivalent) in machine learning, mathematics, statistics, physics, computer science, or similar fields. We expect knowledge and interests in environmental topics and programming skills (e.g., Python / R / C/C++).
