Bellaterra, España Centre de Visio per Computador A tiempo completo

**Research area or group**: NeuroComputational and Biological Vision Team (NeuroBiT)

We are seeking a skilled and motivated Research Scientist to join our team focused on advancing the field of Tone-mapping Operators (TMO). TMOs are pivotal algorithms aimed at generating perceptually similar low-dynamic range images from high-dynamic range ones. This role involves conducting research to evaluate the performance of various TMOs through psychophysical experiments.

**Main responsibilities**:

- **Experimental Design and Execution**: Design and execute psychophysical experiments to evaluate the performance of TMOs. These experiments will involve comparing digitally-generated images both amongst themselves (digital to digital) and against real scenes (digital to real). Ensure that experiments are conducted in controlled environments representing diverse real-life scenarios.
- **Data Analysis**: Analyse experimental data to assess the effectiveness of different TMOs. Evaluate local relationships among lightness levels, global visual similarity, naturalness between physical scenes and tone-mapped images, and aesthetic appeal of the generated images. Utilize statistical methods to derive meaningful insights from the data.
- **Algorithm Evaluation**: Rank TMOs based on experimental outcomes, considering factors such as grayscale and intrinsic image properties conservation, faithfulness to reality, and aesthetic appeal. Identify correlations between different metrics to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each TMO.

**Requirements**:

- Degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Applied Mathematics or a related field with a focus on computer vision, image processing
- Proven experience in conducting psychophysical experiments, preferably related to image processing or visual perception
- Proficiency in statistical analysis tools and techniques
- Strong programming skills, particularly in MATLAB
- Ability to think creatively, work independently and make decisions
- Ability to take initiative, prioritize and work under set deadlines and pressure

**Conditions**:
The position will be located at Computer Vision Centre (Campus Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona)
- Full-time contract (37.5h/week) temporary contract, a good environment, flexible working hours
- Duration: 1 month
- Starting date: March 2024
