Hi all,

We are looking for a post-doc in neural machine translation as part of the
Horizon2020 ICT RIA project “Bergamot: Browser-based Multilingual
Translation“. If you have recently defended a PhD thesis (or are close to
defending) and have experience with deep learning methods in machine
translation and other sequence-to-sequence NLP, then this is your chance to
work in close collaboration with several internationally renowned research
groups and grow as an independent researcher.

The aim of the Bergamot project is to allow NMT engines to run offline in a
web browser, while dynamically adapting to the user's requirements, content
and the surrounding context, as well as yielding controllable output
quality. As part of the position you will work on faster and lighter
multi-domain and multilingual NMT approaches that can adapt to various
kinds of context info.
