- | In the field of Machine Learning, numerical optimization techniques play a focal role. However, as models grow larger, traditional implementations on single-core CPUs suffer from sequential execution causing a severe slow-down. In this thesis, state-of-the-art GPU frameworks (e.g. CUDA) are to be investigated in order implement numerical optimizers that substantially profit from parallel execution. | + | < |

- | Requirements: | + | With robotics playing a significant role in various domains, simulation is essential for developing and testing algorithms. Multiple simulators are available, each with its own specialized format (SDF, USD, MJCF, URDF, FBX) for describing scenes. This diversity of formats makes it challenging to transfer scenarios between simulators. Therefore, a versatile parser that can convert scene descriptions between these formats is highly valuable. |

+ | In our research group, we focus on the development of modern robots that can make use of the potential of game engines. One particular research direction, is the combination of computer vision with game engines. | ||
+ | In this context, we are currently offering multiple Hiwi positions / student jobs for the following tasks: | ||
+ | * Software development to create Interfaces between ROS and Unreal Engine 4 (mainly | ||
+ | * Software development for our Robot Perception framework [[http:// | ||

+ | == Game Engine Developer and 3D-Modelling | ||
+ | A recent development in the field of AI is the usage of photorealistic simulations, | ||
+ | In our research group, we focus on the development of modern robots that can make use of the potential of game engines. This requires a high degree of specialized game engine plugins that can simulate certain aspects of our research. Another important task is the creation of 3d models. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Therefore, we are currently offering multiple Hiwi positions / student jobs for the following tasks: | ||
+ | * Modelling of objects for the use in Unreal Engine 4. | ||
+ | * Creation of specific simulation aspects in Unreal Engine 4. For example the development of interactable objects. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Requirements: | ||
+ | * Knowledge of 3D-Modelling tools. Blender would be highly preferred. | ||
+ | * Experience in Game Engine development. Ideally Unreal Engine 4 and C++. | ||
