Position 1 (MSc/PhD/Research Assistant at Qatar University, Qatar)

Research field : Web development and Image processing

We are looking for a highly motivated, skilled individual, who is passionate about Computer vision, Software Engineering, Handwriting Recognition and Image Processing to work as a full time or part time research assistant and Postgraduate student.

Position 2  (PhD/Research Assistant at Qatar University, Qatar)

Research field : “Multiview post-processing and coding for Wireless Video Sensor Networks”

The use of sensor networks for video surveillance and security purposes is gaining interest due to the availability of cost effective distributed video wireless sensors. However, the quality of the acquisition and transmission is limited due to some unpredictable and uncontrolled factors. The existing solutions have limitations especially in complex and cluttered environments. We will investigate new solutions based on multi-view processing to enhance the quality of the visual data acquired by the distributed video sensors. The artefacts and video packets loss which may result from the transmission channel will be also considered in this work.

Key words:  Image processing, video enhancement, error resilience; packet loss processing; coding artifacts reduction; Multiview coding/transmission

 Requirements:

Applicants should have a strong background in image/video processing and excellent programming skills in Matlab, C, and C++.
