<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The Informatics
Institute at the University of Amsterdam is offering a PhD
position to develop research on the visualization of topic
threads in news data. The researcher will develop new
algorithms for topic thread discovery in large multimodal
data sets (images, text, video, and their metadata), use
these algorithms as the basis for interactive topic thread
visualization and bring them together in a prototype for
multimodal topic thread exploration in the domain of
investigative journalism. Methodologies will include deep
learning, multimedia analytics, multimedia mining, and
information visualization. This position is one of 15
Multidisciplinary PhD Positions in Digital and Data
Journalism together forming the European Marie-Curie
Training network JOLT. For more information on the network,
