$30,000.00

YEP - Applications Engineering EIT - Qoherent projects and software development.

FY 2023-24 · 2023-07-10

Summary
The student will be invited to participate in two projects related to the ongoing development of Qoherent's Wireless AI Sandbox (WAIS) product. WAIS is a utility for engineers to design, train, and deploy machine learning models for radio signal classification into software-defined radios, for building better sensing and communications systems. These systems are used in national security, Satcom, and telecommunications applications. The student will be tasked with participating in integrating our quantum machine learning work into WAIS, as well as our technology for deployment into commodity hardware-built base stations.

Description (French)
La personne sélectionnée sera invitée à participer à deux projets liés au développement en cours du produit Wireless AI Sandbox (WAIS) de Qoherent. WAIS est un utilitaire permettant aux ingénieurs de concevoir, former et déployer des modèles d’apprentissage automatique pour la classification des signaux radio dans les radios définies par logiciel, afin de construire de meilleurs systèmes de détection et de communication. Ces systèmes sont utilisés dans des applications de sécurité nationale, de communications par satellite et de télécommunications. Il incombe à cette personne de participer à l’intégration de nos travaux sur l’apprentissage automatique quantique dans WAIS, mieux-être de notre technologie pour le déploiement dans des stations de base matérielles de commodité.
