THIS MUCH DOING ISN'T DOABLE AT JUST ANY COMPANY.
SHARE YOUR PASSION.
We believe in creating an environment where our interns really can learn by doing and where they are given their own areas of responsibility right from the start of their time with us. That’s why our experts will treat you as part of the team from day one, encourage you to bring your own ideas to the table – and give you the opportunity to really show what you can do.
We, the BMW Group, offer you an interesting and varied Master thesis in the field of automated driving and sensor fusion. Our team researches and develops cutting-edge perception and fusion strategies to advance autonomous driving technologies. As part of your thesis, you will support us in exploring robust and efficient solutions for real-world deployment of multi-sensor fusion using state-of-the-art machine learning methods.
What awaits you?
* You will conduct an in-depth literature review on Transformer architectures, multi-modal fusion, and robust perception for automated driving.
* Furthermore, you support experimental evaluation of high-level fusion approaches using public and BMW multimodal datasets.
* In addition, you help select and develop suitable Transformer-based fusion models for multi-sensor inputs.
* Moreover, you will explore efficiency strategies to enable low-latency deployment on in-vehicle hardware.
* You will assist in evaluating accuracy and robustness in simulated and real-world driving scenarios.
* Collaboration with an experienced team of software developers and ML engineers at the Autonomous Driving Campus in Unterschleißheim is part of your tasks.
* Please note: You must ensure that the thesis is supervised by a university.
Please note that your thesis must be supervised by a university on your part.
What should you bring along?
* Studies in computer science, electrical engineering, robotics or a related field with focus on machine learning, deep learning or artificial intelligence.
* Strong understanding of Transformer-based models and attention mechanisms.
* Experience with sensor fusion concepts is a plus.
