PhD position summary/title: Doctoral student in large-scale distributed machine learning
With the development of computing and communication technologies, and emerging data-driven applications, e.g., IoT based intelligent systems, social network analysis and vehicular networks, the volume of data for various learning systems increases explosively along with the number of involving computing nodes. Thus, large-scale distributed machine learning (e.g., federated learning, and alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM)) has been pervasive in our societies and industries. However, the practical performance of DML is often limited by various bottlenecks and is still far from theoretical upper limits. Thus, this project will develop efficient algorithms and schemes to achieve reliable, secure and low-complexity large-scale DML. One key approach is to exploit network and channel coding schemes. Theoretical analysis will be performed using learning and communication tools (e.g., graph model, coding and information theory, optimization). The result will also be verified by simulations with true data.

PhD position summary/title: Doktorand inom robusta digitaliserade framtida elnät
Framtida elkraftsystem förväntas ha ett högt genomslag av förnybar energi, energilagring, producenter och konsumenter med elektriska bilar, smarta hem och hushållsapparater. När komplexiteten och sektorkoppling i energisystemet ökar, kommer frekvensen av oväntade händelser att öka samtidigt som svängmassan i systemet håller på att sjunka. Dessutom leder ökad digitalisering till att energisystemet i hög grad exponeras för cyberattacker. Säkerheten och resistens av energi-infrastrukturen är avgörande för ett välfungerande samhälle.

PhD position summary/title: Ph.D. students in robust learning of dynamical nonlinear stochastic models
The aim in this project is to develop less computationally demanding algorithms, which have only marginally worse accuracy compared to the optimal ones. These algorithms should also be robust, meaning that they should be less sensitive to non-ideal settings and require less a prior information. Statistical analysis of the theoretical properties of the developed algorithms is an important ingredient of the project. The project offers rich possibilities to explore the intersection between control theory, mathematical statistics and machine learning for theoretically inclined PhD students.

PhD position summary/title: Doctoral student (licentiate)in method development for railway capacity analysis
Capacity analysis aims to estimate the amount of rail traffic that can be operated on a given infrastructure, and analyse possible improvements of the capacity. Different methods to analyse the capacity exists, but a common method used in Sweden today is timetable compression. This method has some deficiencies, which the previous research project KAIN has addressed. The follow-up project KAIN 2, funded by the Swedish Transport Administration, is ongoing and continues with the method improvement and development that started in KAIN. This doctoral project is a part of KAIN 2 and as a doctoral student you will work with continued method development, e.g. to analyse stations and handle single-track lines, as well as using the method to analyse the capacity utilisation of the Swedish railway network.

About KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden – Official Website
KTH Royal Institute of Technology, abbreviated KTH, is a public research university in Stockholm, Sweden. KTH conducts research and education within engineering and technology, and is Sweden’s largest technical university. Currently, KTH consists of five schools with four campuses in and around Stockholm.
KTH was established in 1827 as Teknologiska Institutet (Institute of Technology), and had its roots in Mekaniska skolan (School of Mechanics) that was established in 1798 in Stockholm. But the origin of KTH dates back to the predecessor to Mekaniska skolan, the Laboratorium Mechanicum, which was established in 1697 by Swedish scientist and innovator Christopher Polhem. Laboratorium Mechanicum combined education technology, a laboratory and an exhibition space for innovations. In 1877 KTH received its current name, Kungliga Tekniska högskolan (KTH Royal Institute of Technology). The King of Sweden Carl XVI Gustaf is the High Protector of KTH.
KTH is the highest ranked technical university in Sweden. It is ranked top 100 in the world among all universities in the 2020 QS World University Rankings.
