  • Job Summary

    In this role, you will develop hyperspectral imaging methodologies to investigate cultural heritage objects, optimize data processing workflows, and integrate machine learning for material identification.

    Your role in the team

    • Develop and implement Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) methodologies for in-situ investigation of cultural heritage objects and architectural surfaces, covering VNIR and SWIR spectral ranges.
    • Design and optimize HSI data-processing workflows, including spectral calibration, preprocessing, classification, and mapping.
    • Integrate HSI with complementary spectroscopic techniques (Macro-XRF, Raman, FTIR in reflection mode) to enable multimodal data fusion and automated material characterization.
    • Apply and further develop machine learning and statistical models (e.g., PCA, SAM, clustering, neural networks) for spectral interpretation, segmentation, and material identification.
    • Create and curate a dedicated HSI spectral library for cultural heritage materials, linking reference samples, mock-ups, and in-situ data, and defining standardized metadata and interoperability formats.
    • Maintenance and development of the insiTUMlab data repository in MediaTUM.
    • Participate in and coordinate national and international on-site analytical campaigns, performing on-site documentation and analysis in collaboration with partner institutions.
    • Support students supervision (Bachelor's, Master's, and PhD), and contribute to capacity-building activities.
    • Prepare scientific publications, technical reports, and standard operating procedures, and participate in dissemination and outreach activities.
