INTRODUCTION =============
Over the last fifty years, computational intelligence has evolved from logic-based artificial intelligence, nature-inspired soft computing, and social-oriented agent technology to cyber-physical integrated ubiquitous intelligence towards Pervasive Intelligence (PI). The International Conference on Pervasive Intelligence and Computing is intended to cover all kinds of these intelligent paradigms as well as their applications in various pervasive computing domains. PICom-2019 is the conference on Pervasive Intelligence and Computing, previously held as PCC (Las Vegas, USA, 2003 and 2004), PSC (Las Vegas, USA, 2005), PCAC (Vienna, Austria, 2006, and Niagara Falls, Canada, 2007), IPC-2007 (Jeju, Korea, December 2007), IPC-2008 (Sydney, Australia, December 2008), and since 2009 as the name PICom. IEEE PICom 2020 will be held on 22-26 June 2020 in Calgary, Canada, co-located with IEEE DASC 2020 CBDCom 2020 and IEEE CyberSciTech 2020. It aims to bring together computer scientists and engineers, to discuss and exchange experimental and theoretical results, work-in-progress, novel designs, and test-environments or test-beds in the important areas of Pervasive Intelligence and Computing.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————– Postdoctoral position on Natural Language Processing / Information Extraction, INESC TEC / University of Porto. —————————————————————————————————————————————————–
The Artificial Intelligence Lab (LIAAD) of INESC TEC / U. Porto is (www.inesctec.pt/en/centres/liaad) is looking for a highly motivated post doc to join the team of researchers working on the Text2Story project. The topic is Narrative Extraction from Text. The aims of the project are to develop Machine Learning and Information Extraction algorithms and tools for Identifying, formally representing and reusing narrative structures from textual sources.
The selected candidate will join the Machine Learning and NLP team of LIAAD-INESC TEC (FCUP or INESC TEC) and will have the opportunity to work in an exciting and young environment in close interaction with research engineers, PhD students and post-doctoral researchers who are working on varied aspects that concern Machine Learning, Information Extraction and Computer Science.
The ideal candidate will have a PhD in NLP or equivalent and the following skills:
* Strong motivation to work with NLP from algorithms to demos and tools; * Theoretical background and hands-on experience on NLP, Machine Learning, Information Retrieval and Information Extraction; * Good communication skills and ability to cooperate within a team; * Good knowledge of programming languages such as, Python, R and Java; * Knowledge of Python and development tools (e.g. GIT); * Motivation to co-coordinate work-packages, co-supervise students and help with project management; * Motivation to articulate with other projects on the topic and go after funding for the research line; * Being able to use Portuguese as a language of study is important.
This position is supported by the FCT project Text2Story. FCT is the Portuguese National Science Funding Agency.
The successful candidate will be offered a contract with the duration of the project of nearly 30 thousand euros per year (taxes apply). To stay after the end of the project is a possibility that depends on the success of the candidate chosen.
PhD positions for this project are also available.
