YOUR ROLE
The Data and Knowledge Engineering team (DKE) within the Technology for Optical Sensors (TOS) group is focused on understanding and developing ways to use machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) to develop and support our research and development (R&D) processes. We work closely with several R&D teams within ST and with the engineering teams within Imaging Sub-group. Specializing on ML & AI techniques associated with Imaging technologies and Imaging signal processing, we are developing new ways to enhance our processes with ML & AI methodologies and tools. In your internship with us, you will be focusing on understanding and developing new ways of using these tools and implementing them within the activities in ST. Your role will involve:
- Understanding the data sources available for analysis development
- Researching and experimenting with techniques for ML and AI assessment of the data
- Developing frameworks and analysis paths
- Testing and verifying the developed analysis frameworks
- Reporting and documenting the work for communication within the team and wider ST community
You will be working within a multi-site team, including other students working on similar or related projects. You will benefit from the support of the other team members as well the other students in the team and the Edinburgh site. With guidance, you will be responsible for developing and directing your own R&D activity, meeting the agreed timescales and regularly reporting your work to the team and the wider ST community.
