PhD position on learning and simulation for human locomotion modelling (closed)

We have an opening for a PhD position on the development of machine learning methods for the modelling of pathological human locomotion in the framework of a collaborative Sinergia project funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. The goal of the project is to develop, through machine learning and neuromechanical simulation, accurate models of human locomotion, together with Stephane Armand (University of Geneva, Kinesiology laboratory) and Auke Ijspeert (Biorobotics laboratory, EPFL, BIOROB). The project will (1) model pathological gaits resulting from motor impairments such as cerebral palsy, and (2) compare and combine neuromechanical simulation and machine learning approaches for gait analysis. It brings together expertise on pathological gait, neuromechanical simulation models, machine learning, coupled with a unique collection of relevant real world data. Continue reading
