1.2 Post-doctorat à Orsay

source: Filippo Santambrogio

Location : Orsay, France
Discipline : Applied Mathematics
Duration : 2 years
Deadline for applying : december 15, 2024 (or until the position is filled)

PEPR PDE-AI is a research project funded by the French ANR (Agence Nationale de la Recherche) for 2023-2027. It involves researchers from several institutions, including a group at Laboratoire de Mathématiques d’Orsay (LMO) in Université Paris-Saclay. The main topics of this project are the interplay between deterministic applied mathematics (PDEs, control theory, optimal transport, calculus of variations, etc.) and artificial intelligence/machine learning.

The Orsay group of this project seeks a post-doctoral researcher to be hired for two years. The selected post-doc will work under the supervision of the local members the PEPR PDE-AI project : Anna Kazeykina, Thomas Gallouët, Cyril Letrouit, Quentin Mérigot, possibly in collaboration with faculty from the Numerical analysis/PDE team from the LMO or of the newly created PARMA Inria team. Collaborations with other member of the PEPR PDE-AI project in France are also encouraged. The hired post-doctoral researcher will be employed by Université Paris-Saclay, under a fixed-term contract of two years. The salary should be around 2000 euros per month net of all taxes, and the position includes standard social benefits (health coverage, 75% of local travel expenses). No teaching duty is associated to this position. Professional travel expenses will be covered by the PDE-AI project. The starting date would ideally be in the fall quarter of 2025.

Applications are welcome by any scientist with experience in the above-mentioned fields, holding a Doctoral degree, or expecting to get it by the starting date of the contract. Women and underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply. In order to apply, candidates must send their complete CV, the list of their publications with links to retrieve them on the web, and a short research project to both quentin.merigot@universite-paris-saclay.fr and cyril.letrouit@universite-paris-saclay.fr. Applicants are welcome to contact us to prepare their research project. Possible research topics include (but are not limited to) :

1.5 Post-doctoral position – Modeling high-contrast intensity observations: from data-driven calibration to the integration of physical priors

This postdoctoral project will build on recent advancements by our research team in modeling the nuisance component that corrupts high-contrast total intensity observations. The focus will be on reconstructing circumstellar disks and modeling the signal degradation caused by the measurement process. The key research objectives include: - Integrating deep models of the nuisance component into algorithms dedicated to circumstellar disk reconstruction in total intensity, potentially inspired from deep models we have developed for exoplanet detection. - Incorporating prior information about typical flux distributions in circumstellar environments observed in total intensity. This will involve using dedicated simulators and combining this information with advanced nuisance models in the reconstruction algorithms. - Addressing the spatio-temporal variability of the off-axis PSF. Two open research directions could be explored: Exploiting metadata, such as adaptive optics telemetry, to track instrumental response variations due to changing observing conditions. Investigating data-driven approaches to model this variability directly from the science data. Whenever possible, raw sensor data will be considered rather than pre-processed data to better quantify signal degradation from both the measurement and processing stages, and to model and propagate uncertainties end-to-end. This process will involve calibrating and assembling raw data using inverse-problem methods developed in the DDISK ANR project (PI: Maud Langlois). While complementary, the priorities of these research objectives can be adjusted based on the applicant’s expertise.

The postdoc will be part of a multidisciplinary collaboration. She/he will collaborate with Jean Ponce (ENS-PSL, Paris), Julien Mairal (INRIA, Grenoble) and Olivier Flasseur (CRAL, Lyon). Additional collaborations would involve experts in observational astrophysics, including Maud Langlois (CRAL, Lyon) and Anne-Marie Lagrange (LESIA, Paris). The postdoc will also collaborate with a third-year PhD student at INRIA. The postdoc will be based primarily at INRIA, with regular visits at CRAL.
