Planned activities

The RSDE Research Unit of the Digital Society Center is seeking a recent graduate interested in pursuing an internship experience in analyzing remote sensing image time series using deep learning techniques for Earth observation tasks. The ideal candidate is a proactive and dynamic young person with strong organizational and interpersonal skills, a propensity for teamwork, and a motivation to undertake training experience in an international context.
The intern, working alongside the research unit staff, will mainly contribute to the development of the following activities:

- Analysis of image time series for a case study, pre-processing, and creation of a dataset to train and validate a deep learning model.

- Design and implementation of a novel method based on deep learning for the image time series analysis.

- Experimental tests to assess the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The opportunity to join the team in other active and developing projects during the internship period and to gain experience in a dynamic and challenging environment, such as FBK, will also be offered.
