Postdoctoral Fellow in Statistical Analyses with Focus on Theory of Causality Detection and Information Flows at Department of Mathematics, Stockholm, Univ. Sweden.
Closing date: 3 April 2017
The research of the position aims to extend the current non-parametric statistical framework, namely the transfer entropy, to detect causality and information flows between time series. In particular, we plan to generalize the framework to quantify “time varying” information flows and “multivariate” causal dependence. The research will also emphasize on applying the generalized theory of information flows to experimental time series of biophysical systems, such as molecular machines and neural systems.
The position involves full-time employment for a maximum of two years, with the possibility of extension under special circumstances. Start date 1 July 2017 or as per agreement.
