Postdoc in Data Science in the area of statistical signal processing and time series aanalysis of greenhouse gas emission data
Aarhus Universitet, Bygning 1130 – 1131, 1134
Job profileThe Center for Quantitative Genetics and Genomics (QGG), Aarhus University seeks a data science postdoc to work with sensor-based greenhouse gas emission (methane) data from livestock. The position is for two years and starts from 1st October 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.Purpose and description of the positionThe “green transition” motivates sustainable food production. Among the number of sustainability factors, the level of methane emissions is one of the key factors to drive the climate change. To ensure sustainability in relation to methane emissions from dairy cattle, continuous emissions monitoring and diverse emission mitigation strategies are of great interest. In this context, a sniffers-based gas emission measurement technique plays a crucial role. Unfortunately, the quality and reliability of acquired data from sniffers are of great concern due to the faults associated with the technique’s hardware and data pipeline. A number of factors and their interplay form a complex unpredictable system of emission variations leading to an embedded noise that is constantly appearing in sniffer-sourced records.The aim of this position is to advance the sniffers technique to allow high-capacity and high-quality operations and results. In particular, develop and validate a fully automated pipeline, enabling effective monitoring and treatment of methane emission records from sniffers, with software modules performing equipment faults detection, data filtering and quality control, to provide condensed reliable phenotypes records ready for quantitative genetic analysis, breeding value estimation and design of emission mitigation strategies.The position is interdisciplinary and covers the area of statistical signal processing, stochastic processes and time series analysis, mathematical modelling / computational biology and software development. The specific research activities will be adjusted according to a successful candidate’s area of expertise, however the overall focus in the project involves the following tasks and responsibilities.Tasks and responsibilities
