Job posting
We are looking for a dynamic research scientist with expertise in
SPEECH RECOGNITION and DIALOGUE PROCESSING
to help start a new research project at the recently formed Institute for
Creative Technologies of the University of Southern California in Marina del
Rey, CA.
The system being built incorporates speech processing, dialogue, agent-based
reasoning, virtual reality, and sophisticated immersive multimedia displays
in a large-scale new project that has links to research at several USC
centers including the Information Sciences Institute (ISI) and the
Integrated Media Systems Center (IMSC).
The candidate should have a Ph.D. in either Speech Recognition or Natural
Language Processing (with emphasis on discourse) and strong abilities in
the both areas. The successful candidate may choose to join the Computer
Science faculty of USC as well, and eventually supervise graduate students
in addition to performing the research.
