The Insight Centre for Data Analytics at NUI Galway 
(www.insight-centre.org<http://www.insight-centre.org>), Ireland is looking for 
an excellent post-doctoral researcher with a PhD in computer science to work 
with its Information Mining and Retrieval Group (UIMR). The successful 
candidate will focus on research challenges in Linked-Data Analytics, Web 
Mining, Web Science, Graph/Network Analytics and Databases, Event Detection, 
Machine Learning (in the context of Linked-Data and Graph Analytics), Adaptive 
Search and Recommender Systems; Some of the challenges currently being 
investigated are:



  * Novel approaches to Social Network Analysis and Graph Mining on 
heterogeneous networks to uncover dependent concepts, labels,

    latent relationships and for causality exploration

  * Scalable and interpretable user/group role analysis and modelling

  * Graph-based real-time recommendation approaches using Linked Data as a 
source of open background data

  * Spatio-temporal correlation analysis on changes to network structure to 
predict events, churn, community formation

  * Stream-computing models for mining massive heterogeneous graphs - for 
example graphs combining social and linked-data

  * Hybrid knowledge graph mining techniques combining statistical and logic, 
inductive and deductive approaches



You should have a PhD related to one of the above topics and have publications 
in top-ranked conferences/journals. The Insight Centre and the UIMR group 
provide a supportive open environment for creative thinking and making, 
collaboration and team work. Within the UIMR group, you will work within a team 
consisting of a senior researcher, several postdocs and 9 PhD and Masters 
students. You should have genuine interest in teamwork, collaboration and 
post-graduate student supervision and guidance; As part of this position, you 
may have the opportunity to contribute teaching to the MSc in Computer Science 
(Data Analytics) at NUI Galway.
