POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT

Post-Doc position in the DOCSCOPE project at the National Center for
Scientific Research (CNRS) GREYC Laboratory, Caen, Normandy, France.

Duration: 12 months

Application deadline: 15.07.2013 (11:59 pm GMT)

The Human Language Technology team (HULTECH) proposes a Post-Doc fellowship
within the context of the newly started DOCSCOPE project (ANR label) at the
CNRS GREYC Laboratory for high standard candidates with a Ph.D. degree in
Computer Science or Electronic Engineering.


POSITION

The DOCSCOPE project aims to contribute to the identification of falsified
documents by developing new methods to detect directly visible or hidden
visual clues using new technologies of documentary image processing.

The exploitation of the results (revealing incoherence, alterations,
fraudulent modifications, doctored photographs, etc.) also integrates an
interpretation phase, which makes it possible to specify the significance
of changes, or the meaning of whatever manipulations have been detected.
Research stemming from Semiology (or Semiotics) and particularly work
applied to image analysis, document analysis or text as image have
obviously their role to play in the global DOCSCOPE procedure. Within this
project, the analysis is not dependent on comparison with an annotated
database, but relies on careful induction from sets of clues.

The successful candidate is expected to work in collaboration with other
researchers, programmers, and students involved in the project in an
interdisciplinary team, and to collaborate with the research units involved
in the project.


JOB REQUIREMENTS

 • Ph.D. degree in Computer Science or Electronic Engineering;
• Theoretical background in Natural Language Processing, Text Mining or
Information Retrieval;

OPTIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
• Ph.D. or experience related to forgery / cheating / falsification;

• Soft skill (e.g., communication, team building, problem solving, etc.);

• Oral and written proficiency in French;
