Subject: Undergraduate Spots on Supported Summer Research Teams The Johns Hopkins Center for Speech and Language Processing is hosting the 2016 Jelinek Summer Workshop on Speech and Language Technology (JSALT). We are seeking outstanding members of the current junior class to join a summer research workshop on language engineering from June 13 to August 5, 2016. The 8-week workshop provides an intense intellectual environment.  Undergraduates work closely alongside more senior researchers as part of a multi-university research team, which has been assembled for the summer to attack some problem of current interest.  The teams and topics for summer 2016 include: * Detecting Risk and Protective Factors of Mental Health using Social Media Linked with Electronic Health Records * Remote Monitoring of Neurodegeneration through Speech * Building Speech Recognition System from Untranscribed Data We hope that this stimulating and selective experience will encourage students ...

Computer Science positions ( vehicle controls and  Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)) Location:  Engineering 5 Student Design Centre Time:  Monday, Feb. 8th 2016 at 2:15p to 3:15p There will be  food and representatives from General Motors for student employment opportunities . They are looking specifically to   hire Computer Science students   in the area of vehicle controls and  Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). The automotive industry is changing and is important for Ontario. It also is an industry known to have a large gender gap in its workforce. It is also a lot  more than just engineering- its marketing, economics, environment and more. Lets come together and talk about the importance of the automotive industry in Ontario, the changing  technology in the field, and how we can address the gender gap to ensure a diverse and creative workforce.  You can also check out all the automotive ...

About the Challenge Suppose you could use the latest software from one of the best research laboratories in the world? Microsoft Research has over fifty projects that span the range of computer science from artificial intelligence to visualization, from cryptography to programming models. They are all showcased on our  Open Source Portal . In these projects, the researchers have created open source tools and made them available for all. The objective of this challenge is to make the tools widely known and available and to elicit exceptional ideas from bright students around the world. Microsoft Research's open source tools are ready to solve your problems and the problems in science and society today. E xperience the power of open source from a top research lab. Join students all round the world in solving problems with Microsoft's open source tools. Win big prizes, or the opportunity to interview for an internship at Microsoft Research. http://research.microsoft...
