Organization DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory Reference Code ARL-R-HCxS-400012-F1 Description We have an open position for a postdoctoral research fellow to investigate multi-modal sensor-fusion approaches for understanding human behavior in realistic environments to facilitate human-AI adaptation at the tactical edge. The aim of the project will be to leverage advanced analytics on human-derived signals from diverse systems to passively predict actions and estimate user state such that future AI platforms for dismounted Soldiers can quickly adapt to the changing needs of the Soldier and squad. The research fellow will be a part of a multi-disciplinary team of cognitive psychologists, neuroscientists, engineers, and data scientists that will conduct research to understand the relationship between critical behaviors and relevant data/metrics from wearables (physiological and biomechanical), AR/VR systems, and other off body systems across controlled laboratory studies and operational field exercises. Research and/or work experience at the intersection of wearables, bio-signals, machine learning, and individual and team performance outcomes are important for this role. Further knowledge of advanced machine learning techniques such as reinforcement learning is a plus.
