ML Hardware Engineering Internship, Interns/Students, Lund, Sweden, Lund, Sweden, Machine Learning

An internship with Arm gives you exposure to real work and insight into the Arm innovations that shape extraordinary. Students who thrive at Arm take their love of learning beyond their experience of formal education and develop new ideas. This is the energy that interests us.

Internships at Arm will give you the opportunity to put theory into practice through exciting, intellectually challenging, real-world projects that enrich your personal and technical development while enhancing your future career opportunities.

This internship position is within Machine Learning Group in Arm which works on key technologies for the future of computing. Working on the cutting edge of Arm IP, this Group creates technology that powers the next generation of mobile apps, portable devices, home automation, smart cities, self-driving cars, and much more.

When applying, please make sure to include your most up to date academic transcript.

For a sneak peek what it’s like to work in Arm Lund, please have a look at the following video: http://bit.ly/2kxWMXp

The Role

You will work alongside experienced engineers within one of the IP development teams in Arm and be given real project tasks and will be supported by experienced engineers. Examples of previous project tasks are:

  • Developing and trialing new processes for use by the design/verification teams.
  • Investigating alternative options for existing design or verification implementations.
  • Help to develop a hardware platform that can guide out customers to the best solution.
  • Implement complex logic using Verilog to bridge a gap in a system.
  • Develop bare metal software to exercise design functionality.
  • Verify a complex design, from unit to full SoC level.
  • Help to take a platform to silicon.

Machine Learning, Graduates, Cambridge, UK, Software Engineering

Arm's Machine Learning Group is seeking for a highly motivated and creative Graduate Software Engineer to join the Cambridge-based applied ML team.

From research, to proof-of-concept development, to deployment on ARM IPs, joining this team, would be a phenomenal opportunity to contribute to the full life-cycle of machine learning projects and understand how state-of-the-art machine learning is used to solve real word problems.

Working closely with field experts in a truly multi-discipline environment, you will have the chance to explore existing or build new machine learning techniques, while helping unpick the complex world of use-cases that are applied on high end mobile phones, TVs, and laptops.

About the role

Your role would be to understand, develope and implement these use case, collaborating with Arm's system architects, and working with our marketing groups to ensure multiple Arm products are molded to work well for machine learning. Also, experience deploying inference in a mobile or embedded environment would be ideal. Knowledge of the theory and concepts involved in ML is also needed, so fair comparisons of different approaches can be made.

As an in depth technical role, you will need to understand the complex applications you analyse in detail and communicate them in their simplest form to help include them in product designs, where you will be able to influence both IP and system architecture.

Estimating Test-Retest Reliability in the Presence of Self-Selection Bias and Learning/Practice Effects

Applied Psychological Measurement, Ahead of Print. Test-retest reliability is often estimated using naturally occurring data from test repeaters. In settings such as admissions testing, test takers choose if and when to retake an assessment. This self-selection can bias estimates of test-retest reliability because individuals who choose to retest are typically unrepresentative of the broader testing […]

Basic Black Live: What can we learn from Charles Ramsey?


May 10, 2013

Earlier this week, Charles Ramsey of Cleveland, Ohio rescued three women and a six year old who had been held captive by his neighbor for a decade. But it was the interview Ramsey gave to a reporter on the scene that day that made him an internet sensation. Within hours, he was trending on Twitter and the subject of numerous autotune creations.

But Ramsey's two minute interview (and the later released call he placed to 911) grew into a larger examination of race, class and the media. The stories of the abducted women have rightfully taken center stage, but questions about Ramsey's introduction to the world media remain. This week on Basic Black, what can we learn from Charles Ramsey?
