Dear colleagues,
I am currently advertising a one-year Postdoc position at the ESOMAS Department, University of Torino.
Deadline for application: January 23th 2023. PhD title possession not needed at the time of application.
The call is published at the link: https://www.unito.it/ricerca/fare-ricerca-unito/assegni-di-ricerca (Bando assegni di ricerca - VI Tornata 2022 - numero di repertorio 5931 del 23/12/2022)
Applications through: https://pica.cineca.it/unito/assegni-di-ricerca-unito-2022-vi/
The research will concern Bayesian mixture modeling for community detection in networks; in particular: - Stochastic Block Model (SBM) as the most convenient generative model for communities in networks - Finite dimensional mixtures with random number of components built on species sampling models - Gibbs sampling algorithms for posterior inference on partitions
Bayesian inference and network theory are at the core of this research and candidates are expected to have some previous knowledge on these fields. Experience on programming and computation are also welcome.
Please contact pierpaolo.deblasi@unito.it for any additional information concerning the project and the call, and please transfer the announcement to other potential candidates.
Best wishes
