[Iefac.list] Researcher (post-doc or research faculty) on Inference Enterprise Modeling

[Edward Huang]

Inference Enterprise Modeling Researcher (post-doc or research faculty)



The George Mason University C4I and Cyber Center is seeking a post-doctoral researcher or research faculty to support a project in inference enterprise modeling.  The purpose of the research is to develop models to predict the performance of enterprises devoted to detecting insider threats.  Current approaches to insider threat detection and mitigation are largely reactive and lack rigorous evaluation methodology. The anticipated research will address this deficiency by developing a multi-modeling framework and testbed to aggregate predictions of multiple models. The framework and testbed will be applied to a series of challenge problems to predict the performance of real-world inference enterprises at detecting insider threats.



The successful candidate will have completed or be nearing completion of a PhD degree in systems engineering, computer science, computational science, machine learning, operations research, cyber security, or a related field.  Desirable methodological background includes systems engineering, system architecture, enterprise modeling, information technology, machine learning, Bayesian inference, artificial intelligence, semantic technology, discrete event modeling, and decision theory.  Experience in cyber security and insider threat detection is beneficial.  Candidates for post-doctoral researcher or research assistant professor are required to have completed the PhD degree before starting work. Candidates at the research instructor level must be nearing completion of the PhD degree by the time of hire.
