About Toho University

Basic information and contact details for Toho University

institution
Founded as The Imperial Women’s Medical College by brothers Yutaka and Susumu Nukada in 1925, but with the reform of the Japanese school system in 1950, it became a coeducational institution and was renamed Toho University. Guided by the founding spirit of "Nature, Life, Man," Toho University was based upon the Susumu Nukada’s book (of the same title) which shaped its ethos and development into a university focused on natural sciences. After World War Two, the faculty of pharmaceutical sciences and the faculty of science moved to Funabashi, Chiba. It now consists of four faculties: the faculty of medicine, the faculty of pharmaceutical sciences, the faculty of science and the faculty of nursing, as well as three graduate schools. There are also medical centres affiliated with the faculty of medicine in Omori, Ohashi and Sakura, where students of the faculties of medicine, pharmaceutical sciences and nursing practice their learning and skills. There are over 30,000 former students of Toho University who are contributing to the medical sphere within Japan. There are around 4,500 students, 4,000 of whom are undergraduates and 450 of whom are postgraduates. There is some 150 doctoral students and 700 academic staff, plus 3,365 administrative staff. Toho University is located in Ota, a ward of the Tokyo Metropolis that literally means "Big Rice Field" and it is the largest of Tokyo’s 23 wards. It is home to Haneda Airport, Tokyo’s international airport and as well as some of the world’s leading manufacturing companies. It also has bustling shopping streets and green residential areas.

Research Assistant in the Division of Science (Computer Science) – Dr. Riyadh Baghdadi

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY ABU DHABI

New York University Abu Dhabi Corporation

United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi

institution

New York University Abu Dhabi Corporation

United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi


Description The Modern Compilers Lab in the Computer Science program at New York University Abu Dhabi, seeks to recruit a research assistant to work on the intersection of compilers and deep learning. Many companies, such as Google, Facebook, and Amazon are building new specialized programming frameworks. This is because these companies need to allow their users to write simple, high-level code and run it efficiently on different hardware architectures. For example, Google has built TensorFlow, a framework for deep learning allowing users to run deep learning on multiple hardware architectures without changing the code. Our research team at NYUAD (New York University Abu Dhabi) is developing a new programming framework called Tiramisu [1]. Unlike existing frameworks, Tiramisu can perform advanced code optimizations that are hard to apply otherwise. Because of this, Tiramisu can generate fast code that outperforms highly optimized code written by expert programmers and can target different hardware architectures (multicore, GPUs, FPGAs, and  distributed machines). In order to have the best performance (fastest execution) for a given Tiramisu program, many code optimizations should be applied. Optimizations include vectorization (using hardware vector instructions), parallelization (running loop iterations in parallel), enhancing data locality by fusion, and blocking (i.e. accessing arrays in a way that improves temporal and spatial data locality). A large number of optimizations exist and choosing which optimization should be used and which should not is important for performance.  In some situations, some optimizations are harmful to performance while they are beneficial in other situations. Currently, there is no way to help users choose which optimizations should be used. Expert programmers usually spend a lot of time trying different optimizations manually to find the best set of optimizations. The goal of this project is to add support for automatic code optimization in Tiramisu.  In particular, we want to use machine learning/deep learning to achieve this. Currently, a basic automatic optimization module that relies on machine learning has been developed and we want to take that module to the next level. The final product of this project would be a compiler pass that allows Tiramisu to automatically choose which optimization should be used for a given unoptimized program. We want to produce a high-quality technique that can be used by the users of Tiramisu and especially by our partner companies and research labs. Candidates must hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in Computer Science, though a master’s degree is preferred. The ideal candidate will have Internship or experience in the areas of compilers and artificial intelligence. For consideration, applicants need to submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, transcript, statement of research interests and two letters of reference, all in PDF format. If you have any questions, please email Prof. Riyadh Baghdadi at baghdadi@nyu.edu or mrasras@nyu.edu. The terms of employment are very competitive and include housing and educational subsidies for children. Applications will be accepted immediately and candidates will be considered until the position is filled.
