Company Name
Matsuo Research Institute Co., Ltd.
Job Type
01-01. Researcher
Work Detail
[Research Content] * Research and development on the fundamentals and applications of deep representation learning. We conduct a wide range of research and development aimed at realizing smarter machines and elucidating the principles of intelligence, focusing on world models. You will be responsible for constructing fundamental methodologies for modeling the external world, or for promoting research in the fields of natural language processing and robotics. Examples of research themes are listed below, but we are not limited to these and are looking for individuals who can proactively set themes and who resonate with the concept of world models. Examples: Deep generative models (VAE, GAN, Flow, diffusion models, etc.) Self-supervised learning Construction of large-scale models Basic research on deep learning (lottery hypothesis, network architecture exploration, etc.) Reinforcement learning and robotics (especially policy acquisition using simulators, real-world transfer) Image recognition technology related to autonomous driving (especially video recognition, video prediction, etc.) Natural language processing and semantic understanding (especially research on recent advances such as Transformers, utilization of multimodal data, etc.) [Job Description] * Research and development on intelligence from the perspective of machine learning × brain/neuroscience (NeuroAI field)
Ideal Profile
Eligibility Requirements (Required) * 5+ years of practical or research experience using machine learning (or equivalent skills) For example, the following experience and skills are desirable: * Experience implementing some kind of self-supervised learning algorithm * Ability to understand implementation methods by reading official GitHub for machine learning-related papers and reimplement them yourself Eligibility Requirements (Preferred) * Research and paper writing experience related to machine learning * Doctoral degree (Computer Science/Neuroscience) * Research achievements including principal publications at top international conferences in related fields (examples below) * Machine Learning Fundamentals: ICLR, ICML, NeurIPS * Language Systems: ACL, NAACL, EMNLP * Image Systems: CVPR, ECCV, ICCV * Robotics: IROS, ICRA, RSS, CoRL * Management experience is not required, but management may be required as part of the job Requests upon Application * When applying, please submit the following: (Required) ① List of research achievements (original papers, reviews, invited lectures, etc.) (Required) ② Major publications (Optional) ③ A document outlining your past research and your future research vision (format is not specified, such as text or slides)
