In connection with the creation of two new Scientific and Research Groups, the recruitment for the position of the Leader of the Scientific and Research Group and the position of Postdoc – Artificial Intelligence / IT is in progress.
We are looking for talented young innovators who aim at new scientific challenges and at the same time work on real world challenges. At IDEAS NCBR, the process of educating young scientists is strongly related to building effective, mutually beneficial mechanisms of cooperation between science and business. Research topics within the groups will concern the development of technologies that will become key ones in the 3-5 years, and not the methods currently used. An important area of our activity will be commercialization of the results of implemented projects in an attractive way, i.e. by co-creating spin-off companies. Therefore, our company is a place of competitive working conditions for young, talented researchers who want to develop their scientific interests and simultaneously be successful in the business.
We are currently looking for a person for the position of a Research Team Leader who will deal with formal modeling and proving the security of cryptographic protocols used in blockchain technology. The research work will be led by professor Stefan Dziembowski in cooperation with the cryptography and blockchain laboratory at the University of Warsaw.
We are also looking for a person for the position of POSTDOC – Artificial Intelligence / IT. The researcher in this position will conduct research and development works related to, among others, such issues as: the use of IT tools in the digital economy, learning data structures or the development of blockchain technology and decentralized finance (DeFi). As a member of our team, he will cooperate with world-renowned experts such as doctor habilitated Piotr Sankowski and professor Stefan Dziembowski and many other experts.
In “Expert’s View” this time we talk with Professor Stefan Dziembowski, leader of the blockchain working group at IDEAS NCBR, about what are NFTs, what role blockchain technology plays in their creation and how they can be utilized in art market.
With the advent of processors and the progress of data science (particularly computer vision and machine learning techniques), non-human actors have been trained to compete and, in an increasing number of cases, win against their homo sapiens counterparts. The benefits of creating AI players are not just about designing a bot that might invent new gaming strategies or be a fun opponent to play against. On the contrary, training such models gives us deep insights into the modern science of algorithms
The IDEAS NCBR’s working group that will deal with research in the field of computer vision will be headed by habilitated doctor engineer Tomasz Trzciński, professor at the Warsaw University of Technology and at the Jagiellonian University. The research agenda of the group will focus on issues related to the effectiveness of artificial intelligence models both in the context of the accuracy and pace of computations, as well as resources necessary for their operation.
