The Synalp Research Group in Computational Linguistics [1] has an open position for a young researcher (pre- or post-doc) starting as soon as possible.

The position is available in the EU funded ModelWriter project [2] and explores connections between machine learning, deep learning, the semantic web and natural language processing. The successful candidate will work on semantic parsing (mapping text to e.g., RDF data) and/or natural language generation (mapping e.g., RDF data to text). 

Prerequisite is a PhD degree or a Master in computational linguistics, computer science, or a related field. Candidates are expected to have some knowledge of natural language processing and solid programming skills. Knowledge of English is mandatory and prior experience in machine learning, deep learning or in semantic web technologies is a plus. There are no teaching obligations. Knowledge of French is not a requirement.

Please send applications (a single PDF file containing a motivation letter, CV, list of publications and research statement) by email to Claire Gardent [3] (claire.gardent@loria.fr). Applications received by November 20, 2015 will receive full consideration. The position is open until filled. For further information, send an email to Claire Gardent (claire.gardent@loria.fr).
