Machine Learning Scientist
Summary
Machine Learning Scientist on the Science team of an MIT Media Lab spin-off pioneering emotion recognition from facial expressions. Day to day: applying supervised/semi-supervised ML and deep learning (CNNs, transfer learning) to large real-world face datasets, prototyping new emotion-sensing methods, and contributing to the in-market SDK.
Responsibilities
- Apply supervised and semi-supervised machine learning techniques on a variety of problems using our large dataset of spontaneous real-world face data
- Experiment with deep architectures for the sensing and modeling of emotion
- Prototype new forms of emotion sensing
- Contribute to our core in-market SDK codebase
- Other duties as assigned
Qualifications
- A Masters/PhD degree in EE/Computer Science with specialization in machine learning, deep learning, computer vision or related areas.
- Demonstrated experience (publications, projects) solving machine learning problems
- Solid background and experience in “large-scale” machine learning methods, including, but not limited to, self-taught learning, transfer learning, co-training, and one-shot methods, as well as feature learning and deep convolutional architectures
- Execute ideas effectively and efficiently
