Applications are invited for the Post-Doctoral Fellow at Computer Science Dept., IIT Gandhinagar. The application deadline is January 31, 2025!
Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar is a public technical university in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. The government of India has declared it an Institute of National Importance. Established in 2008, the IIT Gandhinagar campus is spread over 400 acres along the river Sabarmati.
Non-invasive Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) have the potential to create new communication pathways for both healthy and disabled individuals. However, existing BCI systems have not yet achieved sufficient performance for widespread practical use. This challenge may be addressed by a hybrid neural interface that combines the strengths of non-invasive BCIs with other physiological modalities. These interfaces aim to establish seamless and intuitive communication pathways by integrating signals such as:
This integration enables faster and more accurate decision-making with minimal effort.
At the Human-AI Interaction (HAIx) Lab at IIT Gandhinagar, we emphasize an interdisciplinary approach blending Human-Computer Interaction, Artificial Intelligence, and Neuroscience to:
This project aims to create a hybrid BCI system that blends motor imagery (MI), steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP), P300 signals, and physiological data to provide adaptable engagement modes tailored to users’ needs.
The challenge lies in designing a unified interface where command inputs remain consistent across modalities, allowing users to switch seamlessly without cognitive overload. The postdoctoral fellow will develop paradigms, data acquisition methods, and AI algorithms to analyze multimodal data, integrating language models for assistive communication and control. The goal is to enhance real-time interaction systems, improving accuracy and response times while designing intuitive UI/UX for next-gen applications in assistive devices and clinical tools.
