PhD Researcher in Autonomous Maritime Surveillance
1 month ago
At Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU), we are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team in developing cutting-edge autonomous surveillance systems for critical maritime infrastructure. As a PhD researcher, you will contribute to groundbreaking research that merges robotics, artificial intelligence, and maritime security, pushing the boundaries of innovation and enhancing the resilience of our maritime critical infrastructure.
Key Responsibilities:- Perform internationally relevant research in multi-vehicle simultaneous localization and mapping using multimodal sensor technologies towards mapping and surveillance of maritime critical infrastructure.
- Create multiple datasets including navigation, acoustic and optical data collected from both ASV and ROV.
- Create a cm-level accurate, semantic 3D "seabed-to-sky" map of a CMI using optical and acoustic features.
- Perform accurate target tracking in GNSS and communication degraded environments.
- Carry out experimental work with autonomous surface and underwater vehicles in real marine environments for data collection and validation of developed solutions.
- Lead the preparation of scientific publications towards ISI journals and highly ranked international conferences.
- Share findings of your research with qualified professional audiences.
- Co-supervise BSc and MSc projects possibly within areas relevant to the PhD project.
- Provide teaching assistance in BSc and MSc courses at DTU Electro.
- Strong analytical skills and background in control/estimation theory and machine learning.
- Experience within the field of robotic localization, acoustic or optical perception is a plus.
- Documented experience through courses, projects or former professional work to develop and test solutions for real robotic systems.
- Proficient in ROS/ROS2, Python and/or C++/C#.
- Strong communication skills in English, especially in connection to writing and presenting scientific results.
- Curiosity and passion drive you to uncover the unknown. Your energy enables you to collaborate effectively with peers and pursue independent work towards shared objectives.
The assessment of the applicants will be made by Associate Professor Roberto Galeazzi (DTU Electro) and Professor Patrizio Mariani (DTU Aqua). The scholarship for the PhD degree is subject to academic approval, and the candidate will be enrolled in one of the general degree programmes at DTU.
We Offer:DTU is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation and scientific advice. We offer a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment. We strive for academic excellence in an environment characterized by collegial respect and academic freedom tempered by responsibility.
