Research Associate - Sydney, Australia - University of New South Wales
Description
At UNSW, we pride ourselves on being a workplace where the best people come to do their best work.
The School of Mathematics and Statistics currently has more than sixty continuing academic staff and more than thirty research staff as well as visiting academics. UNSW is the only university in Australia to be ranked in the top 100 in the world in Mathematics and Statistics by each of the four ranking bodies: CWTS Leiden, ARWU, USNews, QS. The School embodies a broad range of research interests in the areas of applied mathematics, pure mathematics, statistics, and data science. It has particular research strengths in Algebra, Analysis, Number Theory, Bayesian and Monte Carlo Methods, Biomathematics, Biostatistics and Ecology, Combinatorics, Computational Mathematics, Data Science, Dynamical Systems and Integrability, Finance and Risk Analysis, Fractional Calculus, Functional and Harmonic Analysis, Geometry and Mathematical Physics, Nonparametric Statistics, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, Optimisation, Stochastic Analysis, and Stochastic Modelling. The School's research groups are interconnected, with frequent interactions between groups and with other schools and faculties both within and outside UNSW.
The Research Associate will undertake collaborative and self-directed research on an ARC-funded Discovery Project titled "High Dimensional Approximation, Learning, and Uncertainty". The aim of the project is to devise and apply innovative schemes for high-dimensional approximation. These schemes will be of proven reliability and accuracy, able to handle variables or uncertain parameters numbering in the hundreds or more, fast in execution, and tailored to specific applications.
The project will design novel schemes for forward simulation in the presence of multiple parameter choices, and surrogate methods for shortening computation times. The new surrogate methods will use recent developments in scientific machine learning, which blends data-driven learning and physics-based modelling. The whole project will make a significant contribution to uncertainty quantification, and should contribute ultimately to the rigorous development of efficient and mathematically sound digital twins. The primary technology of the project will be custom-designed Quasi Monte Carlo Methods.
About the role
The role of the Research Associate reports to Professor Frances Kuo and Professor Ian Sloan and has no direct reports.
Specific responsibilities for this role include:
