About Chiba Institute of Technology
Basic information and contact details for Chiba Institute of Technology
Chiba Institute of Technology was founded in 1942, and was originally known as the Kōa Institute of Technology. It was established by a group of prominent Japanese men, including Prince Naruhiko Higashikuni, naval officer Osami Nagano, philosopher Kitaro Nishida Kuniyoshi, and novelist Saneatsu Mushanokōji. A private university, it moved to the city of Kimitu, Chiba prefecture, in 1946 at which point it took its current name. Seven years later, the university relocated to the site of its current main campus in the city of Narashino, also in Chiba. Chiba prefecture is located on the eastern side of Tokyo bay, and the city of Narashino is close to Chiba’s border with Tokyo. As such, the university is within easy travelling distance of the Japanese capital. Chiba Institute of Technology has three campuses: the Tsudanuma Campus and the Shin-Narashino Campus are both located in Narashino, while the Tokyo Skytree Town Campus is situated in the capital. Among CIT's research centres are the Future Robotics Technology Centre, or fuRo, which develops robot technology; the Planetary Exploration Research Centre, which researches the origins of life in the universe; and the Software Technology and Artificial Intelligence Research Laboratory. The university has five faculties: Social Science, Advanced Engineering, Information and Computer Science, Creative Engineering, and Engineering. It has established international links with universities in about 20 countries around the world, including the University of Colorado Boulder in the US, Amity University in India, and the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden. One of the university’s best known alumni is Masayuki Uemura, an electrical engineer who designed the Nintendo Entertainment System games console. Other former students include the anime director Kazuki Akane, and the actor Hiroshi Tachi.

Research Fellow A in Computational Phonology
University of Surrey
United Kingdom, Guildford
University of Surrey
United Kingdom, Guildford
The University of Surrey is a global community of ideas and people, dedicated to life-changing education and research. We are ambitious and have a bold vision of what we want to achieve - shaping ourselves into one of the best universities in the world, which we are achieving through the talents and endeavour of every employee. Our culture empowers people to achieve this aim and to collectively, and individually, make a real difference. The role Postdoctoral position in computational phonology on "Rational Evolutionary Phonology" Prof Erich Round is seeking qualified applicants for a fully-funded two-year postdoctoral project on “REVOLUPHON: Rational Evolutionary Phonology". This postdoctoral project contributes to the core formal-theoretic and cognitive modelling components in the ERC-selected, UKRI-funded project "Rational Evolutionary Phonology", led by Erich Round in 2024–2029. The position is based at the Surrey Morphology Group at the University of Surrey and provides the opportunity to work in the vibrant and highly collegial research environment for which SMG is renowned. Background REVOLUPHON is an ambitious project in computational cognitive science, cultural evolution and phonological theory, which seeks deeper explanations for human phonology. Though phonological theories are diverse, they contain recurrent axioms and atoms: segments, features, prosodic units, et cetera. We hypothesise that these units of representation are explicable in terms of the interaction of phonetics with resource limitations on human cognition (resource rationality). Separately, recent decades show that phonologies can be reasonably well modelled as optimisation problems, with optimisation imputed to the mind. We hypothesise that apparent optimisation, and its exceptions, arise because phonologies undergo cultural evolution, an optimising process. REVOLUPHON tests these hypotheses through computational modelling of cognition and cultural evolution, to develop new foundations for phonological theory. Responsibilities The candidate will be a core member of a research team focused on achieving the REVOLUPHON project aims and will participate in the broader activities both of the REVOLUPHON group and of the Surrey Morphology Group (SMG). The candidate will have opportunities at SMG to develop their research leadership profile while interacting with world-class researchers. Please refer to the full job description, under ‘Addendum’ for key responsibilities. About you Suitable candidates trained in theoretical and computational phonology are strongly encouraged to apply. Please refer to the full job description, under ‘Addendum’ for essential and desirable criteria. The position is full time, and the successful candidate will be required to work on-site at the University of Surrey, Guildford for three days per week. How to apply To apply, please upload a CV along with your application to the University website. You will also be asked some brief questions to help us understand your suitability for the role. The following documents will be required: CV Contact details for 2 referees. DOI/URL links to up to three relevant works of research. Link to one or more public repositories illustrating coding work. Research statement max. 400 words, describing research interests and experience. Further details Job Description
