Two PhD student position in individual & collective reasoning, Luxembourg (Luxembourg)

ICR (Individual and Collective Reasoning) is going to offer two PhD 
positions starting in 2019 September.

ICR is an interdisciplinary research team at the University of Luxembourg 
which is driven by the insight that intelligent systems (like humans) are 
characterized not only by their individual reasoning capacity but also by 
their social interaction potential. Its overarching goal is to develop and 
investigate comprehensive formal models and computational realizations of 
individual and collective reasoning and rationality.

ICR is anchored in the Computer Science and Communications unit (CSC) at 
the Faculty of Science, Technology and Communication (FSTC). The group, 
which is led by Leon van der Torre, hosted more than 20 researchers in 
2018 and is strongly engaged in international cooperation.

Our research areas include normative reasoning in multi-agent 
contexts, logics for intelligent agents/robots, legal knowledge 
representation and reasoning, formal/computational argumentation and 
defeasible reasoning with uncertain/inconsistent information, with 
applications to AI, Law, and the formal sciences. In 2018, ICR also 
started to develop Space AI, which will contribute to the UL priority of 
space education and research. The foci of the two PhD projects should be 
on 'Security and privacy of resource-constrained devices' and 'Risk 
analysis and regulatory compliance of distributed ledger technologies for 
transaction and management of securities'. The pre-announcement can be
