[CUNY2011] 3 post-doctoral positions in computational psycholinguistics at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia

[Mark Johnson]

      3 Post-doctoral researcher positions in Computational
      Psycholinguistics:

We're recruiting *3 post-doctoral researchers* to work on statistical 
modelling, computational linguistics and machine learning here at 
*Macquarie University*. We're looking for strong candidates with 
expertise in statistical models and machine learning interested in 
applying their expertise to understanding human language comprehension, 
acquisition and instantiation in the brain.

*Applications close on the 1st May 2011*.

One position is for *computational models of language acquisition* 
(especially non-parametric Bayesian models) and will involve developing 
new models of language acquisition and applying them to child language 
development data.  It will involve working with language acquisition 
researchers as well as computational linguists and machine learning experts.

The second position is for *computational models of incremental 
syntactic processing*, especially on-line processing of both text and 
speech.  This candidate should have a good background in statistical 
parsing and/or language modelling.

The third position is in *machine learning and computational 
neurolinguistics*.  This candidate will apply statistical modelling and 
machine learning to neural imaging data obtained from our on-campus MEG 
and fMRI facilities.  The candidate will work closely with 
neuroscientists as well as machine learning experts.

These positions are funded by the *Australian Research Council* and 
*Macquarie University*.
