Studierende finden an der ETH Zürich ein Umfeld, das eigenständiges Denken fördert, Forschende ein Klima, das zu Spitzenleistungen inspiriert.
The Institute of Machine Tools and Manufacturing (IWF) performs international leading research on machine tools and in the field of production engineering. We are looking for a new PhD candidate for a new research project with close industrial contact.
Process prediction remains the main challenge for modern handheld processes. Typically, unstable process conditions are avoided by extensive experimental study. Existing physical models provide inaccurate results, making their usage unattractive for real industrial application cases. Making predictions from experimental observations requires an enormous amount of data, which is not practicable for industrial use. It is hence targeted to develop a hybrid approach, which combines the existing knowledge about the process and the capabilities of machine learning approaches. With the continuously growing database, it is expected that the prediction accuracy improves significantly over time.
We are looking for someone with a Master’s degree (or close to completion) in Mechanical Engineering or a similar field from a recognized university with an excellent GPA, strong analytical skills and some experience in machine learning. A background in machine tools is beneficial. Good programming skills in Python are required. Furthermore, proficient oral and written English skills are expected.
You can expect a full-time position in a highly motivated, young research group that offers an excellent research infrastructure. The work place is located in the heart of Zurich. There is the possibility to transition from the research assistant position to a PhD position.
We look forward to receiving your online application including:
