Vacancy for a postdoctoral researcher in the field of predictive analytics
Offer DescriptionThis applied research project is a collaboration between the FI and the LIRIS and DTAI research groups at KU Leuven. A wide range of predictive classification and regression models are used to support operational decision-making at the FI. Currently, these prediction models take static or time-agnostic feature sets as input. The objective of this project is to develop (a) framework(s)/methodology(ies) to extract time-aware features from (i) transaction, (ii) event, and (iii) interaction data of the financial institution that can be used as additional inputs to these predictive models. The developed methodology(ies) need(s) to be validated empirically.RequirementsResearch Field Computer science Education Level Master Degree or equivalentLanguages ENGLISH Level ExcellentAdditional InformationBenefitsWe offer a full-time position as a postdoctoral researcher for one year year (extension may be possible following a positive evaluation).
