Job Title
Internship - learning imu representation
Job Description
6-9months assignment, 40h/a week,
allowance 500-700 Euro
Philips has a long history of successfully introducing innovative products to the market (lamps, CD players, medical imaging equipment, patient monitors, etc). Today, Philips is 100% health technology company with Data and AI being an integral part of Philips strategy.
This assignment is about learning representations using self supervised learning on large amounts of unlabeled IMU data. Our IMU data comes from brushing session with our high-end Philips Sonicare toothbrushes. This IMU data is used as input to our AI model to predict where in the mouth a user is brushing. By improving the internal representations, we hope to improve the accuracy of this AI model. Additionally, the learned representations can be used to better characterize toothbrush motion and detect outliers.
Your role:
* Conduct a review of self-supervised methods and techniques.
* Implement various self-supervised methods
* Train variants of our localization model leveraging the self-supervised weights
* Benchmark localization models to quantify improvement due to self-supervised learning
* Explore opportunities for better characterization and outlier detection.
* Document the results in a technical report.
You're the right fit if:
* Currently enrolled in a Master's program (WO/MSc.) in Data Science, Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Electrical/Electronic/Biomedical engineering.
* Experience with Python programming is essential.
* Good knowledge of machine learning practices in PyTorch.
* Interest in healthcare technology and signal processing
* Experience with state-of-the-art AI models in computer vision / signal processing
* Language: good written and spoken English.
* Previous internship experiences is not necessary but a plus.
* Good communication skills and enthusiasm to work in an international team.
How we work together
We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week.
