This research project focuses on developing an Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) framework for the inspection of Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) to improve transparency in decision-making processes. It aims to integrate various XAI methods with artificial neural networks (ANNs) to enhance nuclear safety and verification. Candidates should have a Master's degree in a relevant field and experience in machine learning.

About the research project:
Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models are powerful tools for Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) safeguards inspection. However, their architectural and optimization complexity renders them black boxes, posing a challenge when making critical decisions, such as classifying SNF as either consistent or inconsistent with declared information. In this doctoral research, you will investigate an Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) framework to enable transparency in ANN models and their predictions for SNF inspection, bridging high-performing machine learning with transparent nuclear verification.
What you will do:
Conduct doctoral research focused on exploring, testing, and evaluating an Explainable AI (XAI) framework for Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) safeguards inspection.
Integrate various XAI methods and study semantic layers to aggregate predictions into actionable explanations for safeguards inspectors.
Leverage XAI insights to guide ANN model architectures, optimize training strategies, and strengthen model robustness.
Develop your own scientific concepts and communicate research results through peer-reviewed journal publications and conference presentations.
Take courses at an advanced level within the Graduate school of Nuclear Engineering .
The position generally also includes teaching at Chalmers' undergraduate level or performing other duties corresponding to 20 percent of working hours.
