Dear all,

The LaBRI research lab based at the University of Bordeaux is currently seeking highly 
motivated candidates with excellent academic records and experience in knowledge 
representation and reasoning (esp. ontologies, description logics, inconsistency
and uncertainty handling), database theory, data quality and/or logic in CS to join 
the Ratio team (ratio.labri.fr/ <https://ratio.labri.fr/>) and take part in the INTENDED AI Chair (intended.labri.fr <http://intended.labri.fr/>). 

We currently have an opening for a 13-month postdoc position.The recruited person will 
collaborate with myself and other project members on foundational research related to the 
project's overall theme of developing principled methods for handling imperfect 
(inconsistent, inconsistent, and/or uncertain) data, by exploiting declarative knowledge 
and reasoning.  Generally speaking, this will involve the definition of formal frameworks 
for repairing and querying imperfect data, the study of the computational complexity of the 
associated reasoning tasks, and the development of reasoning algorithms (note that 
implementation of developed algorithms is not required, but could be undertaken if desired).

The precise research topics can be adapted to some degree to take into account the specific 
background and interests of the hired researcher, so brilliant candidates with an interest for 
the overall project topic should not hesitate to apply! 

A more detailed description of the position, research environment, desired profile,
and application procedure can be found here:

The preferred starting date would be in late 2024 or early 2025, but the position 
will remain open until filled. Applications submitted by September 25, 2024 will 
receive full consideration. 

If you're interested in applying, or simply want more information, please get in touch!

Best regards,
