What are the responsibilities and job description for the Internship - Optical Sensing for Airflow Reconstruction position at Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories?
The Computational Sensing team at MERL is seeking motivated and qualified individuals to develop algorithms that can perform background oriented schlieren (BOS) tomography. The project goal is to utilize both analytical and learning-based architectures to enable the reconstruction of 3D air flows in an indoor setting from BOS measurements coupled with physics informed machine learning. Ideal candidates should be Ph.D. students and have solid background and publication record in any of the following, or related areas: imaging inverse problems, large-scale optimization, differentiable scene rendering, learning-based modeling for imaging, and physics informed neural networks. Preferred skills include experience with schlieren tomography, inverse rendering, neural scene representation, and computational imaging hardware. Publication of the results produced during our internships is expected. The duration of the internships is anticipated to be 3-6 months. Start date is flexible.
