Evaluating the errors associated with Machine Learning (ML) predictions is an active area of research crucial for the safe and effective deployment of ML techniques. These errors have two components. The epistemic error refers to the degree of similarity between the analysed data and the ones the uses to train the machine. The uncertainty error refers to the noise in the training and test data.

The Pica Ciamarra groups is looking for a highly motivated and qualified Research Fellow with the ambition of producing high quality research to develop physics-inspired model for error estimation in ML. The Research Fellow will be involved in research design, data analysis, model development, numerical simulations, and report/paper writing, in strict collaborations of partners of the CNRS@Descartes.

The Research Fellow is expected to perform state of the art numerical simulations using computing resources from National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) Singapore. The incumbent has freedom to design the nature and type of deep learning simulations.

Key Responsibilities:

• Devise physics-inspired ML approaches to estimate epistemic and uncertainty errors.
• Construct synthetic dataset suitable to the designed models.
• Implement models for error estimation in classification and regression tasks.
• Interact with partners of the CNRS@Descartes project to foster the application of the developed models to use cases.
• Validate models via large scale simulations on National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) Singapore.

Project Title: Sn-based alloy-carbon nanoassemblies for sodium-ion batteries using plasma-based sustainable technologies (RI 7/22 RSR )

Project Introduction: Sustainability of lithium-ion batteries in long run, as major energy storage system, is not possible due to limited resource of lithium and increasing cost. Hence, focus on sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) is increasing as sodium is abundantly available at much lower cost. The biggest challenge for SIBs is to find suitable anode material with appropriate sodium voltage storage, large reversible capacity, and high structural stability. Moreover, the synthesis process of anode material needs to be cost, time and energy efficient. It is hypothesized: (i) Carbon (GraphiticCarbon/Graphene/GrapheneQuantumDots = GC/G/GQD) encapsulated nanostructured-tin (ns-Sn), i.e. GC/G/GQD@ns-Sn, as anode in SIBs will accommodate volume change, prevent formation of excessively thick SEI layer, and avoid pulverization leading to enhanced capacity, capacity retention and stability. (ii) Plasma based strategy, as against wet chemical approach, can provide sustainable environmentally friendly synthesis of GC/G/GQD@ns-Sn with better energy-, time- and cost- efficiency. Specific aims are: (i) to develop and optimize the plasma based sustainable synthesis of integrated hybrid 3D GC/G/GQD@ns-Sn anode in core-shell configuration, and (ii) to develop and test industry relevant SIB prototype using the most optimized carbon-Sn combination and bench mark its capacity, efficiency, cycling and stability. Synthesis of ns-Sn onto suitable 3D foam substrate using plasmas will be achieved first. Afterwards, GC/G/GQD will be encapsulated onto ns-Sn using plasma strategy to form GC/G/GQD@ns-Sn. Structural, compositional, morphological properties of electrode material along with their detailed electrochemical characterization and performance analysis will be conducted to achieve best battery performance.

The Research Fellow hired for this project at NIE will work on synthesis and optimization of GC/G/GQDs@ns-Sn as anode electrode material using plasma based dry process. He/she will also be responsible for the characterization (SEM, EDX, XRD, RAMAN, TEM, XPS etc) and performance evaluation (using battery tester and electrochemical workstation) of the anode electrode material.

Requirements:

Essential

• A PhD in Physics or Engineering with a strong background in low-temperature processing and synthesis of materials.
• Strong experience in development, operation and optimization of various plasma devices and associated diagnostics.

• Expert on using various material characterization facilities SEM, EDX, XRD, RAMAN, TEM, XPS etc
• Expert on using electrochemical workstation and battery tester with experience on electrochemical performance analysis of batteries.
• Good written and verbal communication skills with evidence of proven writing skills from research papers and research reports.
• At least 5-year of experience on plasma devices and material characterization tools.

Preferred

• Good knowledge of lab safety issues
• Good organizational skills
• Able to work within given deadlines with an eye for details
• Able to work independently with minimum supervision
