We are hiring!
A doctoral position with our group at the Chair of Structural Mechanics and Monitoring at ETH Zurich is now opened on Learning from Observations and Experts for facilitating Decision Support for Wind Energy Structures.
This position forms part of the 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐃𝐨𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐍𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐝 (coordinated by DTU - Technical University of Denmark, Nikolay Dimitrov), which seeks to appoint 16 highly motivated Ph.D. candidates to a range of positions across Europe. These Doctoral Candidate (DC) positions offer an exciting opportunity to work with leading experts across Europe to develop Intelligent systems for autonomous wind power plant operations via the IntelliWind MSCA Doctoral Network funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2023 Marie Skłodowska-Curie programme.
Doctoral candidate position A1, in particular, will be hosted and matriculated at ETH Zurich, with secondments at Ramboll, RTDT Laboratories AG and the Technical University of Munich (with Daniel Straub).
The candidate will focus on imitation learning from observations and expert inputs for planning of fault reaction strategies. The objectives of this thesis include development of decision support tools, such as tools relying Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) capitalizing on use of Machine Learning (ML) models; and fusion of monitoring data and expert judgement into a decision support tool for automating mitigation actions.
