Two journals have released data from their own experiments that suggest that offering payments of around US$250 to researchers who review manuscripts speeds up the process, without affecting the quality of reviews.

این پوزیشن همچنان بازه و من نمیدونم چطوری میشه این رو به اهلش رسوند ولی شاید شما بتونید کمک کنید.
اگه کسی شرایط گفته شده رو داره میتونه به منم پیام بده.حوزه های کاری محتمل هم یکی یا ترکیبی از این هاست :
ML Theory
ML for Dynamical Systems and PDEs, especially with applications in molecular dynamics and/or climate modelling
Deep Learning Theory & Language models (Linear RNNs, ... )
Numerical optimization and its application to ML and DL

بهکارگیری ریاضیات برای بررسی تاثیر انسانها بر عقاید یکدیگر
مهدیه ابراهیمی
انسانها گاهی عقاید خود را در حین بحث با یکدیگر تغییر میدهند. محققان میتوانند با استفاده از ریاضیات این تغییر نظرات را در رویدادهای ساده شده زندگی روزمره بررسی کنند. این سناریوهای ساده شده که در واقع مدلهای ریاضی هستند به دانشمندان کمک میکنند تا تاثیر انسانها بر یکدیگر را از طریق ارتباطات اجتماعی بررسی کنند. در دنیای دیجیتال امروز این مدلها میتوانند به ما کمک کنند تا یاد بگیریم چگونه اطلاعات درست را ترویج و پخش کنیم و جلوی پخش اطلاعات نادرست را بگیریم. در این مقاله ما یک مدل ساده ریاضی برای تغییرات ایدهها، که برخاسته از بر همکنشهای اجتماعی است را بررسی میکنیم. ما به طور خلاصه شرح میدهیم که مدلهای تغییر نظرات چه به ما میگویند و چگونه دانشمندان سعی میکنند آنها را واقعیتر کنند.

Thanks to progress in physics, we understand fairly well the behavior of inanimate matter at thermodynamic equilibrium. But can physics help us understand things that are out of equilibrium and alive? In this Lecture, using examples from our research, Prof Simone Pigolotti will try to convince the audience that the answer is yes.
