Master Thesis in Efficient Video Representations Using Hierarchical Predictions Robert-Bosch-Campus, 71272 Renningen, Germany Full-time Robert Bosch GmbH Company Description At Bosch, we shape the future by inventing high-quality technologies and services that spark enthusiasm and enrich people’s lives. Our promise to our associates is rock-solid: we grow together, we enjoy our work, and we inspire each other. Join in and feel the difference. The Robert Bosch GmbH is looking forward to your application! Job Description The goal of this master thesis is to explore innovative methodologies for enhancing the efficiency of deep neural networks in artificial intelligence applications, particularly in robotics and autonomous driving. During your thesis you will work on developing a temporal predictive extension of existing foundation models to identify and eliminate redundancy in temporal high-dimensional data, such as video streams. This approach aims to significantly reduce runtime inefficiencies associated with sequential computations, thereby streamlining the inference process and improving overall model performance. You will conduct a comprehensive literature review to understand current methodologies. Furthermore, you will design a novel model extension that incorporates temporal predictive capabilities, and you will implement training protocols to optimize the model's performance on temporal data. Finally, you will evaluate the model's efficiency in terms of computational and energy consumption and analyze the implications of the findings for real-time AI applications. Qualifications Education: Master studies in the field of Natural Sciences and Engineering (like Computer Science, Math, Statistics, Physics, Cybernetics, Electrical Engineering) with very good grades Experience and Knowledge: strong knowledge and experience in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, and Python (PyTorch) Personality and Working Practice: you excel at working independently and driving your own projects forward with strong intrinsic motivation Languages: fluent in English Additional Information Start: according to prior agreement Duration: 6 months Requirement for this thesis is the enrollment at university. Please attach your CV, transcript of records, examination regulations and if indicated a valid work and residence permit. Diversity and inclusion are not just trends for us but are firmly anchored in our corporate culture. Therefore, we welcome all applications, regardless of gender, age, disability, religion, ethnic origin or sexual identity. Need further information about the job?
