Postdoctoral Researcher (f/m/d) in Quantum Sensing and Signal Processing

Organizational unit

Institute of Industrial Information Technology (IIIT)

Job description

The research at IIIT focuses on signal processing and measurement science. Current focus areas are a) multisensory measurement systems and information fusion using classical methods and methods of machine learning as well as their applications in industrial quality assurance, environmental perception and human-machine interaction, and b) novel signal processing methods for nonlinear systems described by integrable partial differential equations and their demonstration in engineering applications.

The advertised position involves research into quantum methods for solving real-world sensing and signal processing tasks. Quantum methods are considered a potential game changer in many engineering disciplines, including sensing and signal processing. The aim of the research work is to identify promising problems in these areas and to analyze and develop possible solutions based on quantum methods.

Tasks:

• Research on quantum methods for solving sensing and signal processing tasks
• Development, analysis and validation of respective algorithms on basis of simulations and real quantum computers
• Preparation of research proposals (e.g. to the DFG) and implementation of research projects in this field is encouraged
• Guidance of PhD students
• Developing and teaching courses in this subject area

Starting date
