PhD on neuromorphic computing & engineering: algorithms & hardware architectures
Eindhoven University of Technology
Job descriptionThe Neuromorphic Edge Computing Systems (NECS) Lab at the Eindhoven University of Technology invites applications for one Ph.D. position from a passionate and innovative young researcher. Our mission is to overstep the boundaries of artificial intelligence (AI) and neural networks, challenging the current computing paradigms by drawing inspiration from biological neural networks.Despite significant advances in AI, current systems must catch up to the animal kingdom’s efficiency in processing complex, real-time tasks with minimal energy in uncertain conditions. This limitation stems from a fundamental difference in design philosophy; while nature leverages distributed processing and inherent noise tolerance, modern computing relies on deterministic, bit-perfect operations with a clear separation between memory and computation. To bridge this gap, the NECS Lab is pioneering research into brain-inspired computing models that mimic the natural neural system’s computational physics. Our research entails the development of novel brain-inspired computing theories, learning systems, and the design of ultra-low-power circuits, systems, and computing architectures.We are seeking one PhD candidate interested in performing research in the following areas: * Ultra-low-power Mixed-signal Circuits and Architecture: Design of novel CMOS-based architectures for spiking neural networks that embody the brain’s adaptive capabilities.
With these research focus, the NECS lab aims to push the boundaries of energy efficiency and integration of AI-capabilities in embedded devices, paving the way for a new generation of neuro-inspired processors for efficient autonomous agents.Job DescriptionWe offer an exciting Ph.D. opportunity for a pioneering approach to neuromorphic engineering and computing, drawing inspiration from neural mechanisms observed in biological neural systems.Key responsibilities: * Engage in groundbreaking research to develop advanced neuromorphic sensing, and computing systems by taking inspiration from the sensing and computing capabilities of natural neural systems.
Job requirements
Conditions of employmentA meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:
. * An excellent technical infrastructure, on-campus children’s day care and sports facilities.
and a tax compensation scheme (the 30% facility) for international candidates.Information and applicationAbout us
Eindhoven University of Technology is an internationally top-ranking university in the Netherlands that combines scientific curiosity with a hands-on attitude. Our spirit of collaboration translates into an open culture and a top-five position in collaborating with advanced industries. Fundamental knowledge enables us to design solutions for the highly complex problems of today and tomorrow.The is managed by Dr. Federico Corradi and is part of the Electronic Systems (ES) group (tue.nl/es). The ES group is a top research group consisting of five full professors, three associate professors, five assistant professors, several postdocs, about 40 EngD and PhD candidates, and support staff. The ES group is world-renowned for its design automation and embedded systems research. Our ambition is to provide a scientific basis for design trajectories of electronic systems, ranging from digital circuits to cyber-physical systems. The trajectories are constructive and lead to high-quality, cost-effective systems with predictable properties (functionality, timing, reliability, power dissipation, and cost). Design trajectories for applications that have strict real-time requirements and stringent power constraints are an explicit focus point of the group.Curious to hear more about what it is like as a Ph.D. candidate at TU/e?
