We are looking for highly motivated candidates for

computer science and archaeology partners in Switzerland
and Germany. Both positions are available immediately.
Postdoctoral candidates are expected to have a PhD in
computer science or electrical engineering on one or

recognition, machine learning, multimedia retrieval,
or document analysis. Candidates are also expected

interest in working as part of a multidisciplinary
team developing methods for cultural heritage
applications. The position is for up to three years.
Ph.D. student candidates are expected to have a master's
degree in computer science or electrical engineering
with strong mathematical and programming skills.
Experience in computer vision, machine learning, or
multimedia retrieval is a plus. The student will
enroll at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology
in Lausanne (EPFL). The position is for four years.
Idiap (EPFL's Lidiap laboratory) is located in Martigny
in Valais, a scenic region in French-speaking Switzerland
surrounded by the highest mountains of Europe, which
