Dear colleagues,

Applications are invited for a 3-year Research Fellowship (postdoc) in 
the theory of co-evolutionary computation at the University of 
Birmingham. Co-evolutionary algorithms are heuristic optimisation 
techniques, mimicking biological principles of natural selection, e.g. 
for minimax/robust optimisation and learning game playing strategies. 
Such algorithms have been successfully applied to various industrial 
optimisation domains. However, the theoretical understanding of these 
methods has been limited.

The successful candidate will contribute, together with other project 
team members and international academic and industrial partners, towards 
developing the theoretical foundation necessary for the design of 
efficient and reliable co-evolutionary algorithms. The fellowship is 
funded by the UKRI Turing AI Acceleration Fellowship project "Rigorous 
Time-Complexity Analysis of co-Evolutionary Algorithms", providing 
generous travel allowance, computing facilities etc.

The ideal candidate will have a strong research track record in theory 
of evolutionary computation, algorithmic game theory, and/or randomised 
algorithms.

For further details, please see

The closing date is 13 Oct 2021.

Best wishes,
