Norway: PhD Studentship in Color Imaging, The Norwegian Color Research Laboratory

The Norwegian Color Research Laboratory has recently received significant funding from The Norwegian Research Council to carry out a research project entitled ”Perceptual image difference metrics - a unifying approach to image representation and reproduction.” The principal objective of the project is to improve the state of the art of colour image representation and reproduction, by developing new perceptual image difference metrics and using them in new ways.

We will develop new metrics based on improved colour difference formulae, perceptual predictors, saliency maps, and multilevel methods. We will improve the state of the art techniques for image compression, high dynamic range tone mapping, colour gamut mapping, and halftoning, by using these metrics in a novel optimisation framework.

The project will be carried out by existing faculty, postdoctoral researchers, and PhD students. At this point, we seek a PhD candidate, for whom knowledge and experience in the following areas would be helpful:

* Signal and image processing
* Colour vision and colour science
* Perceptual modelling of imaging processes
* Optimisation techniques
* Cross media colour reproduction
* Image and video compression

The position can be awarded for a period of up to four years, and will include 25% teaching/administrative duties. The position isremunerated according to salary level 43 in the national salary scheme, gross NOK 325 600 (appx EUR 40 700) per annum, of which 2% is deducted for the State Pension scheme.

Applicants are encouraged to submit a research project description of 2-3 pages. Please send application letter, resume, statement of research, copies of transcripts, as well as name and email addresses of three references before August 10, 2007 to:

Gjøvik University College
Director of personnel Jan Kåre Testad
P. O. Box 191,
