Job description:

- ysis? Contribute to a growing and challenging research field in a five year fully funded PhD-TA journey, investigating complex, multifaceted phenomena as well as industry processes. Then please apply_

"Traditional" visualization of time-changing (or dynamic) networks entails discretizing the time dimension, effectively "slicing" it into equally spaced intervals (e.g., daily, monthly, yearly). Real-life event sequences (e.g., tweets, Whatsapp calls, industry processes, physical contacts), however, present timestamps that do not match any obvious overlaying time structure: therefore, choosing a time resolution to "timeslice" such data is complex and prone to loss of precision. Aggregating events in the same timeslice means losing the exact order of events within it - this, in some contexts like contact tracing, is crucial information. Switching to a continuous time axis presents a two-fold chal
- lenge: algorithms (and network layout techniques in particular) need to tackle this further complexity, possibly being more computationally expensive; plus very few approaches exist for visualizing, exploring, and, ultimately, analyze temporal networks in continuous time. On the other hand, a continuous time axis leaves the full temporal information available to the user, allowing for unlimited manipulation (like a image vector file over a raster image).

In this project, we aim at investigating novel visualization techniques for large event-based graphs, bridging the gap with the research topic of event sequence analysis, offering you the opportunity of building a robust expertise in di

Benefit from a stimulating interdisciplinary environment, combining expertise in Data Science, Data Visualization, Process Mining. As part of our team, you'll receive comprehensive support and mentorship to develop your skills and expertise.
- national conferences - and given the "Teaching Assistant" nature of this position, it is expected to actively contribute to the teaching activities of the group.

Job requirements:

  • A master's degree (or an equivalent university degree) in Mathematics or Computer Science.
  • Interest in the discipline of Visualization and Visual Analytics.
  • Genuine interest in teaching.
  • Experience in coding with Javascript/Python and frontend frameworks (React, Angular).
  • Knowledge of graph theory and layout algorithms is considered a plus.
  • Skills in GPU graphics and computing libraries are considered a plus.
  • Good communication and teamworking skills.
  • You are creative, critical, analytical, motivated, and persistent.
  • Fluent in spoken and written English (knowledge of Dutch is not required).
