Postdoc Towards Reliable, Explainable, Trustworthy

**Postdoc Towards Reliable, Explainable, Trustworthy, and Easy-to-Interpret Therapy Personalization**:
**Job description**:
Current rehabilitation technology interventions require the constant intervention from the therapist to personalize the therapy plan to patients’ individual sensorimotor and cognitive deficits. This puts a tremendous burden on therapists’ cognitive workload as they must deal with a large amount of high-dimensional data to infer decisions. Although recent Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches for therapy personalization have yielded promising results, there are raising concerns about their interpretability and trustworthiness. Furthermore, previous research only employed single metrics, which are inherently a poor descriptor of the overall patient characterization.

This project aims to mitigate these limitations by developing a novel therapist-in-the-loop personalization approach based on Hybrid AI. We are seeking for a postdoc to combine the power of neural networks to learn meaningful associations from high-dimensional data with the possibility to explicitly model therapists’ reasoning by symbolic AI to provide reliable, explainable, trustworthy, and easy-to-interpret therapy recommendations.

The therapy plan could be adjusted at different rates, depending on therapists’ preferences, e.g., at a therapist-defined rate, by suggesting specific virtual reality games to address individual motor deficits and/or at a minute to hour scale, by automatically tuning the game difficulty/complexity and robotic assistance during training. To enhance the communication intuitiveness, we aim to employ e.g., semantic communications and/or knowledge graphs.

**Job requirements**:
Further you have:

- Open-mindedness and motivation to embark on interdisciplinary research.
- Affinity with teaching and supervising students.
- Solid programming skills.
- Ability to take initiative.
- Proficient in verbal and written English.
