[Corpora-List] RA position at the University of Cambridge

[Stephen Clark]

A position exists for a Research Associate to work on the project 
DisCoTex: Distributional Compositional Semantics for Text Processing. The 
project is funded by the European Research Council in the form of a 
Starting Grant awarded to Stephen Clark. The aim of the project is to 
develop a general modeling framework of compositional distributional 
semantics and apply it to cognitive modeling and large-scale NLP tasks.

The successful candidate will have a PhD or equivalent in computational 
linguistics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer science, 
or a related discipline. He/she will have strong programming skills and 
previous experience in machine learning and/or natural language 
processing. Previous experience in theoretical physics - e.g. quantum 
mechanics - may also be considered an advantage.

The RA will work with Stephen Clark as part of a growing group of 
researchers working on Distributional Compositional Semantics, and will be 
a member of the Natural Language and Information Processing Research group 
at the Computer Laboratory:

The post is for 3 years starting from 1 October 2013 (or perhaps earlier 
if convenient for the chosen candidate).

Details of how to apply can be found at:

Deadline for applications is 22 May.
