About Us
Join Us
At the Vermont Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (VaiL), we operate at the intersection of machine learning theory and application. Our mission is to enhance the adaptability and generalization of machine learning methods, enabling high-quality solutions to address a wider range of real-world challenges. Our core research focuses on image geo-localization and geospatial understanding, leveraging diverse modalities and sensors, including ground-based and satellite imagery. Additionally, we actively collaborate with interdisciplinary teams across various fields.
Applications are invited for one doctoral research position starting in Fall 2025 in the Computer Science or Complex Systems and Data Science Programs within the Department of Computer Science at the University of Vermont. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Prof. Safwan Wshah on projects focused on:
-
Image geo-localization
-
Geospatial understanding of satellite imagery
Applicants should have a strong background in machine learning and software engineering. Preferred qualifications include a publication record in a relevant machine learning field and experience with open-source toolkits such as TensorFlow or PyTorch.
Interested candidates should submit the following:
-
A CV, including a list of publications
-
A brief description of research interests
-
An academic transcript
-
Contact information for three references from prior research experiences
Please email application materials to safwan.wshah at uvm.edu. Candidates must also apply to and be admitted into the University of Vermont's Computer Science graduate program.
Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. Additional information about Prof. Wshah’s research group and the University of Vermont can be found at www.wshahaigroup.com.
