Ph.D. and PostDoc Openings at DARPA-Awarded Czech Technical University - Explainable Perception-to-Action Models (applied to excavators etc.), Neuro-Symbolic Deep Learning for Agile Low-Altitude Flight (with Lockheed-Martin)
Research group Vision for Robotics and Autonomous Systems (VRAS) at the Department of Cybernetics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, is looking for outstanding Ph.D. students and postdoctoral researchers.
Projects
We are opening several full-time PhD and PostDoc positions. Join us on these exciting international research ventures!
-
In the EU Horizon project XSCAVE (4 years), you’ll work on cutting-edge algorithms and software to research high-performance, safe, and explainable perception-to-action models. These models will enable mobile machines to master challenging terrain during excavation, forwarding, and navigation tasks. This project runs in collaboration with Uni Tartu, Tampere Uni, Aalto Uni and Umeå Uni.
-
The 5-year Kolibriq project focuses on groundbreaking neuro-symbolic deep learning methods for controlling autonomous, agile aircraft navigating at low altitudes near obstacles. This project runs in collaboration with a big US partner.
-
We still have a few open positions from our former job offering for the ROBOPROX project (Deep Learning with Physics-Informed Neural Networks, Lidar-to-Text Embeddings, Generative models for lidars).
Ph.D. Positions
Requirements:
- Excellent grades
- Experience in relevant fields
- Good programming skills (Python, C/C++, (ROS))
Successfull PhD candidates will get a full tuition waiver and a monthly compensation equivalent to about 1850 EUR of gross income.
PostDoc Positions
Requirements:
- PhD in robotics, AI, or related fields
- Proven track record relevant to the topic – publications in top journals or conferences:
- computer vision (CVPR/ICCV/ECCV)
- or machine learning (NeurIPS/ICML)
- or robotics (ICRA, IROS, RSS, CoRL)
Accepted PostDoc researchers will receive initial appointment for 1 year (with an extension of up to 3 years, based on annual performance evaluation), gross salary of about 3200 EUR monthly, full social and health insurance and 30 days of paid annual leave.
Prague and the workplace
The group has a strong track record in machine perception and computer vision. More recently, there has been substantial development in robotics, with groups focusing on search and rescue robotics and cooperation with firefighters. We regularly publish at top robotic and CV conferences like ICRA, IROS, ICCV, ECCV (most of our publications are listed here).
The group, together with roboticists from the Department of Computer Science and the group Multi Robotic Systems, form the Center for Robotics and Autonomous Systems. CRAS has succeeded in numerous competitions: the CTU team ranked 3rd overall and 1st among self-funded teams in the Tunnel Circuit round (2019) and the Urban Circuit (2020) of the DARPA SubTerranean challenge and was 2nd overall in the Final Event (2021) in the Virtual challenge.
Hardware infrastructure at the Department includes wheeled, tracked, and legged robots (including 2 Boston Dynamics Spots and 2 Spots with arm) for search and rescue operation equipped with state-of-the-art 3D lidars from Ouster, high-resolution omnivision pack, industrial-grade IMUs and other sensors. Further, there are industrial as well as collaborative or lightweight manipulators (KUKA LBR iiwa, UR10e with Airskin, Kinova Gen3), flying robots (including fleets of UAVs), and humanoid robots (iCub, Pepper, 2x Nao). The Department has access to a high-performance computational cluster dedicated to artificial intelligence research and developments using traditional multi-CPU systems, but also GPUs, including NVidia DGX stations and Graphcore IPUs.
There is currently a very lively international ecosystem in the areas of robotics and AI - at the Department and in Prague in general. See, for example, prg.ai.
CTU has an international student club assisting with study affairs and organising leisure-time events. Prague was TripAdvisor’s #7,#8, and #11 world’s top destinations in the years 2017-19. Beautiful mountain landscapes and historic cities are within reach. Owing to Czechia’s Schengen-area membership, numerous exquisite European destinations can be reached from Prague with no border restrictions or delays. Our teams take great joy in social and savoir-vivre activities.
The administration and project office provides professional support with long experience in managing international projects.
ROS and Gazebo
Our team heavily uses ROS and Gazebo for research. And we also give back to the community by publishing the interesting parts of our work as ROS packages (VRAS github, officially released ROS packages), most notably robot_body_filter or point_cloud_transport. We also gave a talk at ROSCon and helped organizing ROSCon 2022.
We have implemented the first open-source simple (yet plausible) simulation model of tracked robots in both Gazebo Classic and new Gazebo (here’s a comparison to the traditional “workaround” models) . Thanks to that, anyone can play with all our mobile robots in Gazebo!
How to apply

The project aims to exploit LLMs to better support ACPS developers in developing energy-efficient software for ACPSs. At the core of the project lies the concept of architectural tactic, i.e., design decisions that influence the achievement of system qualities and can be reused across projects. For example, a tactic for energy efficiency is to offload computationally-expensive algorithms from a battery-powered robot to the Cloud. Tactics have been studied and successfully used in areas like big-data cybersecurity and Cloud-based systems, but they have never been used in conjunction with LLMs. LLMs will be used for recommending architectural tactics for ACPSs either conversationally to developers at development time or programmatically to the ACPS itself at runtime. Architectural tactics in ACPSs are highly domain- and context-dependent, they can have side effects, and can come with non-trivial complex trade-offs. The ability to process large amounts of data and internalise implicit cross-domain knowledge of LLMs makes them excellent candidates for managing architectural tactics. The objectives of the project include:
- to build a knowledge base of concrete, repeatable, and quantifiable architectural tactics for energy-efficient ACPSs,
- to integrate such knowledge base into different LLMs for providing timely recommendations about applicable tactics at development time,
- to develop an approach for automatically applying and composing architectural tactics in the context of ACPSs,
- to develop a self-adaptive approach where ACPSs autonomously apply tactics to their software architecture in response to changes in their measured quality of service (e.g., energy degradation).
