Job Description
- The successful candidates will work with Prof. Shoemaker and her group to develop, implement and/or evaluate serial and parallel single or multi objective optimization algorithms for black-box objective functions.
- The optimization problem can be expected to have multiple local minima/maxima. Surrogate methods are considered also since computational efficiency for computationally expensive objectives (e.g. simulations) is greatly enhanced with them.
Job Requirementst
- PhD in an optimization/statistical/computational field (e.g. Operations Research, Industrial/Systems
- Extensive experience in developing complex computer codes in Python.
- Prior knowledge of surrogate global optimization is an advantage.
