Evaluate transfer-learning strategies for adapting policies from passenger vehicles to heavy-duty vehicle configurations.
Investigate combining driving data from multiple vehicle configurations within a unified learning framework.
Implement, train, and evaluate proposed solutions for generalization, data efficiency, and driving performance.

Requirements

Master (civilingenjör) in computer science, robotics, electrical engineering, or applied mathematics.
Specialization in artificial intelligence algorithms preferred.
Proficiency in deep learning and imitation learning techniques.
Familiarity with motion planning and transfer learning strategies.
Ability to implement, train, and evaluate machine learning models.

Desired Qualifications

Prior research or project experience in autonomous driving or robotics.
Experience with specific deep learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch).
Understanding of vehicle dynamics and kinematics.
Knowledge of multi-embodiment learning concepts.

Benefits

Opportunity to get closer to TRATON Group R&D.
Build relationships for the future.
Work on cutting-edge autonomous driving technology.
Thesis project contributing to industry advancements.
