Research Assistant/Postdoctoral Position in Properties of Entropy Functions in Information Theory

Description :
Assistant Professor Yanlin Geng’s research group is seeking a research assistant/postdoctoral researcher in the area of information theory. The project aims to investigate the behavior of differential entropy under Gaussian noise perturbation, the features of entropy space, and the properties of entropy functions. The candidate will mainly perform theoretical analysis, and might need to do a bit programming. He/she will be also involved in collaborations with international partners from Hong Kong and USA. The position is available immediately for one year, with another one year possible extension. More information about Dr. Yanlin Geng can refer to the following website:
