[交流] Funded PhD positions in multi-agent systems in New Zealand

Funded PhD positions in multi-agent systems in New Zealand

Two PhD scholarships are available for a research project titled "a computational
theory of collective action" at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand.
Successful applicants will develop agent representation and reasoning mechanisms
based on social expectations to facilitate the achievement of collective action in
multi-agent systems, and evaluate these in simulation studies. The scholarships
cover fees and a tax-free stipend of NZ$27500 per annum for three years.

Candidates should have an undergraduate Honours degree or Master's degree in
computer science or related discipline, with excellent grades, and have prior
research experience, as evidenced by the inclusion of a significant research project
or thesis in their previous study, or quality publication(s). Strong programming
skills are essential, and experience with artificial intelligence, multi-agent
systems, formal logic, game theory and social science applications of computing are
desirable.

The students will be supervised by Prof. Stephen Cranefield (University of Otago,
NZ) and Prof. Jeremy Pitt (Imperial College London).

The award of a scholarship is conditional on gaining admission to PhD study in the
Department of Information Science at the University of Otago.

The University of Otago is New Zealand's oldest university, and has a higher
proportion of PhD students than any other NZ university. It is ranked 151 in the QS
World University Rankings 2018 and has the highest QS Stars rating of 5+ for overall
university quality.

For more information about PhD study at the University of Otago, see
https://www.otago.ac.nz/graduate-research/study/phddoctoral/. Further information for
international candidates is available at https://www.otago.ac.nz/international.

Please contact Stephen Cranefield, stephen.cranefield@otago.ac.nz, for inquiries and
applications.

Applicants will be considered on an ongoing basis until the two positions are filled.
