<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">The post-doc
is part of the <b>Open-ViBE2 project</b>, recently funded by the French
National researchAgency
(ANR). </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">Brain-Computer
Interface (or BCI) corresponds to the direct use of brain signals to send “mentalcommands”
to an automated system such as a robot, a prosthesis, or a cursor on a computer
screen. In the
previous ANR OpenViBE1 project (Dec.2005-May2009) we have developed an
open-sourceplatform
to easily design, test and use BCI (<a href="http://openvibe.inria.fr/">http://openvibe.inria.fr/</a>). In addition, we
have opened new</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">research
areas in the field of BCI, EEG signal-processing and in Virtual Reality (VR)
technologiessupporting
BCI applications. This involved four partners of the current proposal (INRIA,
INSERM,GIPSA-Lab,
CEA).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">In
OpenViBE2 we aim at adapting, in real-time and in an automated fashion, the
interaction protocolitself
as well as the content of the remote/virtual environment (VE). Our project
focuses on</span><b><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">videogames
and more particularly on the emerging market of serious games</span></b><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">, which
is a new field of
application for BCI. The consortium gathers partners from the leading French
videogame industry (Ubisoft,
Capital-Games, Black Sheep, Kylotonn) as well as a partner (CHArt) of the ANR
project ‘LUTIN-GameLab’
that developed techniques for gameplay assessment. In videogames, the mental</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">state
of the user is known to be an important parameter, not to say the ultimate
target of game design.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US"><br></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">The
goal of OpenViBE2 is thus: “<b>exploiting EEG information to measure, identify
and use the </b></span><b><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">mental
states and brain responses of the user to adapt both the way the user can
interact with the
videogame and the content of the videogame”.</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">In a
brain-computer interface digital signal processing algorithms for relevant
feature extraction should
be fully adaptive. It is well known that EEG task-related activities (such as
focusing or movement
imagination) have a high inter-individual variability. Therefore, the feature
extraction process
must adapt to the individual by means of a learning process. In a videogame
setting such learning
process should be carried out seamlessly and should not require additional
efforts by the user.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US"><br></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="EN-US">The
candidate will focus on optimizing digital signal processing/machine learning
strategies. The major
challenge is to transpose known feature extraction strategies in a fully
on-line adaptive context, a path
that has been followed only recently in the BCI literature. New strategies will
be evaluated as well,
namely, those allowing following brain dynamics in time, space and frequency
simultaneously (e.g.,
Hidden Markov Models).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="color: black;" lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="color: black;" lang="EN-US">The candidate should
have a strong background in the theory of digital signal processing and/or machine learning.
He/she should have good programming experience for coding and testing the new
algorithms. Previous experience with biomedical data and particularly with EEG or MEG and with BCI
is sought and would be a plus. The candidate will become part of a group of researchers
moved by common objectives. The candidate should possess good knowledge of spoken and
written English. The position will be filled between October 1, 2009 and January 1,
2010. Please forward CV and names of three recommending colleagues to the contact person
(here above).</span></p>
