Job Title: Artificial Intelligence Researcher Positions for Human-Robot Collaboration

Estimated Salary: €60,000 per year

About the Job

We are seeking highly motivated researchers to join our team at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia and contribute to our cutting-edge research on artificial intelligence (AI) and human-robot collaboration.

Job Description:

The successful candidates will work on developing innovative AI frameworks that enable collaborative robots (cobots) to understand and respond to human commands in natural language, interpret visual cues, and make autonomous decisions based on real-time data.

The research theme explores the integration of foundation models into control systems of cobots, focusing on achieving full autonomy and enhancing human-robot collaboration.

Responsibilities:

  • Developing hybrid control architectures that combine the strengths of large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) with advanced control strategies.
  • Designing systems that can interpret context, engage in multi-turn dialogues, and provide actionable feedback.
  • Exploring the application of LLMs to enable natural language understanding, allowing cobots to interact seamlessly with human operators.
  • Investigating the use of VLMs to enhance the robots' visual perception capabilities, enabling them to comprehend and react to visual stimuli in their surroundings.

Requirements:

To be considered for this position, applicants must have a strong background in machine learning, robotics, or a related field. The ideal candidate will possess excellent programming skills in Python and C++, experience with frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow, and familiarity with ROS.

What We Offer:

Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia offers a competitive salary of €60,000 per year, private health care coverage, and a wide range of staff discounts.
