Job Description

Context and Key Responsibilities

This PhD position is part of the META-TOO project, a European initiative that aims to investigate and address gender-based inappropriate social interactions in the Metaverse. The project is a collaboration between three distinguished institutions in Europe: the National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology (Inria), the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA), and the Fundació de Recerca Clínic Barcelona (IDIBAPS).

The PhD researcher will contribute to the project by formulating research hypotheses, designing and conducting experiments in VR/AR, and analyzing the results. The goal is to publish the studies at international conferences and journals, with the expectation that the student will take the lead in paper production.

Research Focus

The PhD researcher will focus on two main research topics:

  • Impact of Avatar and Environment Characteristics on Perception of Inappropriate Behavior
    • Exploration of avatar characteristics, such as realism of appearance and movement, animation, gender, ethnicity, attraction, etc.
    • Investigation of virtual environment factors, including size, population density, social setting, and context.
  • Design and Evaluation of Interaction Techniques to Cope with Inappropriate Behavior
    • Development of interactive methods to enable users to initiate their response when detecting inappropriate behavior.
    • Exploration of potential research venues, including modulating avatar appearance or dynamically controlling personal space distances between avatars.

Requirements

The candidate must have a master's degree (or equivalent) with a preference in mixed reality or human-computer interaction. Additionally, the candidate should be comfortable with:

  • Experience in 3D/VR/AR applications (e.g., Unity3D).
  • Experience in evaluation methods and controlled user studies.
  • Good knowledge in programming languages (e.g., C#, C++).
  • Good spoken and written English.
  • Good communication skills.

Benefits

The PhD researcher will enjoy:

  • Subsidized meals.
  • Partial reimbursement of public transport costs.
  • Possibility of teleworking (90 days per year) and flexible organization of working hours.
  • Partial payment of insurance costs.

Compensation

The monthly gross salary will amount to 2100 euros for the first and second years and 2190 euros for the third year.
