Competition Funded PhD Studentship Times series data mining |2021-2022 Scholarships Grants

Faculty of Science

Application Deadline 31st July 2013. This studentship is available for a 1st October 2013 start.

Supervisory Team

Primary: Dr Anthony Bagnall

The Project

Dr Bagnall’s main research interest is in developing techniques for time series data mining and applying them to a wide range of problem domains. He would welcome applications from students who have secured their own funding who wish to work in any areas of time series data mining. Specifically, Dr Bagnall has projects available in Time Series Classification and is looking for people to work on image outline classification and with environmental datasets, but he will consider proposals in related areas such as time clustering, regression and rule induction and other problem domains.

If you would like to discuss research projects in more detail, please contact Dr. Bagnall directly (ajb@uea.ac.uk).
