🚨 Hiring in Munich 🇩🇪: 2 open-topic PhD positions in human & machine learning (TVöD E13 80%).
Start ~June 2026 (flexible). Deadline: March 2, 2026.
Apply/info: hcai-munich.com/PhD_Job_Ad.pdf
Reposts appreciated 🙏
Deadline reminder: March 2, 2026.
If you know a great MSc student looking for a PhD at the human↔ML interface, please share this thread.
What you get: interdisciplinary team + lots of compute via Helmholtz HPC, collaborative lab culture, and supportive mentorship.
If you’re unsure about fit, err on the side of applying.
We’re looking for strong quantitative backgrounds (cog sci / CS / ML / stats / neuroscience).
Solid Python + evidence of independent work (thesis/projects/papers/open-source).
LLM experience is a plus, not required.
Possible directions (not limited to):
• foundation models of human learning/decision-making
• cognitively inspired ML
• automated/open-ended discovery of cognitive models
• continual learning in humans & machines

Our model jointly learns object embeddings and idiosyncratic weightings of psychological dimensions.
The results show improved accuracy on hold-out data as well as reliably measurable dimensional weights (up to ~8 dimensions) and summary stats thereof
Do people's internal representations of natural objects differ? We (@ericschulz.bsky.social) show so by incorporating idiosyncrasies into neural nets to create better models of human behavior. We also reliably extract idiosyncrasies and map them to demographics. More: osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/pxt9a
