Doctoral student in Earth Observation, Data Science, and AI for poverty estimation

Can satellites see poverty—and can AI help end it? We are looking for a Doctoral student to develop deep-learning methods that estimate living conditions across Africa from satellite imagery, and to compare different satellites for this purpose. Then, we use these estimates to evaluate how well villages and cities in Africa and beyond will achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. You will be mentored by an interdisciplinary team and join an internationally connected lab committed to your growth as a researcher.
