About CVC

The Computer Vision Center (CVC) is a non-profit research center established in 1995 by the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). Its mission is to carry out cutting-edge research that has the highest international impact in the field of computer vision. It also promotes the transference of knowledge to industry and society.

Computer vision is an exciting research area and an omnipresent technology, essentially empowering machines with the sense of vision. The CVC is a successful marriage between knowledge and innovation. In addition to our cutting-edge scientific achievements, we have established lasting ties with industrial partners and created several spin-off companies.

Context and Mission

The Quantum Machine Learning at CVC (QML-CVC) group is looking for a physicist, engineer or mathematician to collaborate on a research project on Quantum Machine Learning. The QML-CVC group is a multi-disciplinary team comprised of physicists and computer scientists, experts in computer vision, machine learning and quantum information. The QML-CVC’s Core statement is: Quantum Technologies will allow us to define Computer Vision within a new domain of knowledge. This provides a number of driving questions: Q1: How do we do Machine Learning in a quantum world? Q2: Which classical tasks could be solved in a practical way with quantum technology? Q3: Which are the unveiled social impacts of Quantum Technologies and Artificial Intelligence? Thus, the QML-CVC’s research approach combines a top down approach from general research topics in quantum computing, with a bottom-up approach for the identification of classical tasks which could be solved in a practical way with quantum technology.

The candidates will work on specific topics related to Quantum Machine Learning. Particularly by providing a roadmap for the use of quantum machine learning in the context of classical machine learning provided by the CVC. Hybrid classical and quantum machine learning approaches will be tackled.

Key Duties
