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, the position and how 
to apply visit http://fujomedia.eu/jolt-etn/ (the above project you can 
find as number 4).

Prof. Marcel Worring.
