Post-Doc Opportunity in Neurobiology, Cognition, and Behavior
Research: Decoding/forecasting individual and group movement patterns
in complex (urban) landscape environments through multi-agent modeling
incorporating multi-modal sensory perception/integration, cognition,
and decision-making at the individual level. Organization: U.S. Army
Engineer Research & Development Center (Environmental Lab), Cognitive
Ecology & Ecohydraulics Team. Salary: $55,000-65,000 / yr. Location:
Portland, Oregon. Length: ~3 yrs (Spring 2009 - September 2011).
Degree Required: Ph.D. or equivalent. Skills Required: one or more of
the following at the individual (human or animal) level: neurobiology,
mathematical psychology, quantitative analysis of behavior, cognitive
ecology, signal processing, time-series forecasting, intelligent
software agents, game theory, multi-modal sensory integration,
cognitive decision making. Intellectual Interests: perception,
cognition, decision-making, individual/group/collective behavior,
real-world social/asocial environments, math/algorithms, modeling.
Project Details: This basic research project is focused on developing
new theory and algorithms necessary to support development of a
multi-agent simulation tool for decoding/forecasting the movement
patterns of individuals and small groups in highly complex urban
environments. The Post-Doc will lead research and development of new
theory and algorithms integrating the latest knowledge in multi-modal
sensory perception/integration, cognition, learning, and adaptation
into intelligent software agents that will form an
Eulerian-Lagrangian-agent method (ELAM) model (see
[1]http://el.erdc.usace.army.mil/emrrp/nfs/elam.html ). The Post-Doc
is expected to be adept at learning and integrating knowledge from a
wide variety of scientific disciplines.
Contact: Interested candidates should email (w/subject header:
"Terrain ELAM Post-Doc") a 2-page version of your curriculum vitae to
Andy.Goodwin at us.army.mil
