DM: PhD studentship: Kernel Methods for BioinformaticsFrom: Colin Campbell, Engineering Mathematics Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2000 11:47:55 +0100 (GMT Daylight Time) PhD studentship: Kernel Methods for Bioinformatics Applications are invited for a PhD studentship in the field of kernel methods (for example, Support Vector Machines) and their application to biosequence data. This position is a project studentship funded by the EPSRC and will pay all fees and maintenance for an applicant who is a citizen of the European Union. The grant also includes ample funds for travel and conference attendence. The emphasis of the proposed research is on the development of new algorithms and theoretical work. Consequently applicants should have a good first degree with a substantial mathematical component. A background in computing would also be an advantage. The applications component will be the development and evaluation of kernel methods specifically designed for handling classification tasks arising in bioinformatics. Further details about the proposed research area may be obtained from our webpage http://lara.enm.bris.ac.uk/cig which has a downloadable review paper (An Introduction to Kernel Methods) describing the subject in more detail. Non-EU candidates may also apply for the studentship but because of the difference between EU and overseas fees only exceptionally able candidates will be considered. The closing date for applications is 31st May 2000. Further details can be obtained from: Dr. Colin Campbell, Dept. of Engineering Mathematics, Queen’s Building, University of Bristol, Bristol BS8 1TR, United Kingdom Email: C.Campbell@bris.ac.uk -------------------------------------------- Dr. Colin Campbell, Dept. of Engineering Mathematics, Bristol University, Bristol BS8 1TR, United Kingdom http://lara.enm.bris.ac.uk/cig/ Tel +44 (0) 117 928 9858 C.Campbell@bristol.ac.uk
