Machine Learning Postdoc Fellow-(3275216)
Description
Our laboratory applies computational and machine learning methods to investigate the impact of seizures and abnormal brain activity on outcomes in pigs with cortical impact.
Our goal is to understand pathological correlates of epilepsy and traumatic brain injury. Analysis of datasets (including video EEG telemetry, intracellular Chloride, among others) is central to these efforts.
Specific efforts focus on developing methods for automatically classifying the semiology of pigs in video monitoring as they undergo the development of epilepsy and understanding the relationships between any abnormal behaviors and time after injury or the change in seizure frequency.
Efforts will particularly focus on using supervised machine learning approaches including training artificial neural networks via open source software such as Keras, Tensorflow, DeepLabCut, SimBA, TREBA etc.
or unsupervised learning methods, heuristics, and other algorithms to learn patterns, fit and extrapolate from models, and process large datasets of video frames.
The person will interact with staff in other lab’s such as Sydney Cash’s lab, Kevin Staley’s lab, and Kyle Lillis’ lab.
PRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES :
The machine learning engineer will work and mentor a team of researchers in searching for patterns hidden in large data sets for research in neurology.
The machine learning engineer will be responsible for data from the electronic data repository, including EEG, video, and peripheral blood biomarkers.
The machine learning engineer will develop unique algorithmic approaches for analysis of data and supervise and mentor a team of research staff.
Responsibilities will include :
- Creating or applying methods for automatic classification or regression on large data
- Software development and code management
- Data wrangling of biological, instrumental, or technical data
