The tasks can include the development of modules for face image manipulation or of specific objects, programming convolutional neural networks for face recognition and mobile apps for the demonstration of the results of the project. This project results from the integration of the ISR-UC in the Innovation Network of the INCM and aims at manipulating of photos of faces for identity and travel security documents as the Citizen Card, Passports and others. The work plan will be adapted for the selected candidates in order to work in the development of high-end technologic products using research methods and algorithms in the area of recognition and machine learning.<br><br></span><b><span style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;" data-mce-style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;">More Information at</span></b></span><span style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;" data-mce-style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;"></span><span data-mce-style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;"><span data-mce-style="font-size: 12pt;">: https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/839523</span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;" data-mce-style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></span><span style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;" data-mce-style="font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12pt;"><br></span></span></p><!--EndFragment--> </div><div><br></div><div data-marker="__SIG_PRE__"><div><br></div></div></div></body></html>
