Job description

Who are we?

Télécom Paris, a school of the IMT (Institut Mines-Télécom) and a founding member of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris, is one of France's top 5 general engineering schools.
The raison d'être of Télécom Paris is to train, imagine and undertake to design digital models, technologies and solutions for a society and economy that respect people and their environment.
Télécom Paris is positioned as an open-air laboratory for all the major technological and societal challenges: artificial intelligence, quantum computing, IOT, cybersecurity, major digital facilities (Cloud), 5G/6G, Green IT.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become, in recent years, an essential field of study, explored on one hand in academia and, on the other, naturally applied in the industrial sector. Similar to computer vision, which aims to solve high-level tasks by leveraging visual data through AI methods, machine listening focuses on addressing these challenges using audio modalities. The fusion of such data, primarily through deep neural networks and other modalities derived from acoustics or sensory information from users, is experiencing significant growth to enhance AI systems.

With the advent of extended reality systems (e.g., Hololens 2, Meta Quest, etc.), research in multisensory AI presents new scientific challenges, such as merging information from multiple devices/sensors in motion and user behaviors to improve immersion. Additionally, federated learning is being integrated to leverage data from multiple users while preserving data privacy.

Your main tasks will be to:

- Design and implement teaching in your scientific field
- Conduct research in your scientific field
- Develop and maintain partnerships, collaborations and contractual relations in your scientific field.

Job requirements

This position is aimed at a scientist holding a doctoral degree or equivalent, who seeks to develop and establish expertise in research while also wishing to enhance and evolve their teaching skills.

The recruited researcher will develop their research in Machine Learning, with a focus on Deep Learning and data (audio, image videos). While the position is open to all applications within that field, expertise in Machine listening or Acoustic Extended reality is preferred. Additionally, the IDS department and S²A team have a particular interest in the following transversal themes : 

  • Machine Learning
  • Multimodality (audio, video and images)         
  • Acoustic extended reality  / Acoustic Models
  • Multi-sensors, microphone arrays, speaker networks
  • Federated Learning / Distributed Learning 

Why join us?
If you are passionate about innovation, research and teaching, and would like to join a dynamic and collaborative team, we would be delighted to receive your application.

You'll be working in a fast-growing, pleasant, green and accessible environment (particularly for people with disabilities) just 20 km from Paris (at 45min from Paris by public transport). You will benefit from :
