About the position

We invite applications for a PhD Candidate position focused on the development of hybrid artificial intelligence and optimization methods for dynamic and stochastic transport operations. The position is based at the Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management, located at NTNU’s campus in Trondheim.

This is an educational position, which will provide promising research recruits the opportunity for professional development through studies towards a PhD-degree. The position is connected to the PhD program at the Faculty of Economics and Management, and the faculty will be your employer.

Transport and logistics systems are becoming increasingly complex, data-rich, and dynamic. Public transport operators, freight carriers, and logistics providers must make decisions under uncertainty while responding to disruptions, fluctuating demand, and changing operating conditions.

This PhD project focuses on developing AI-supported decision methods for routing and scheduling in transport and logistics systems. The research investigates how operations research and artificial intelligence can be combined to improve planning and operational decision making under uncertainty.

The project addresses challenges that arise when traditional optimization models are applied in real-world settings characterized by large-scale networks, stochastic demand, operational disruptions, and complex constraints. A central research question is how machine learning can be integrated with optimization algorithms to support faster, more robust, and more adaptive decision making.

The project addresses research questions like:

• How can learning-based models be integrated with optimization methods to improve the robustness and performance of transport planning decisions?
• How can hybrid AI–optimization methods scale to large real-world transport and logistics systems while handling the many constraints encountered in practice?
• How can routes and schedules be evaluated efficiently across many possible future scenarios to support both tactical planning and real-time adaptation?

To address these questions, the PhD candidate will develop and evaluate new decision-support methods that combine optimization and machine learning. Particular attention will be given to methods that can rapidly assess the consequences of routing and scheduling decisions under uncertainty, enabling both robust planning and adaptive operational decision making.

The research will be developed and validated using real-world transport and logistics applications. The primary application domain is public transport planning in collaboration with AtB, the public transport authority in the Trondheim region. Additional case studies may be conducted together with other logistics partners, including Posten Bring (Norway's national postal and logistics operator), Bama (Norway's largest fruit and vegetables distributor), and Oda (Norway's leading online grocery retailer).

The position offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, optimization, and transport systems while contributing both fundamental methodological advances and practical decision-support tools.

Research environment

The PhD position is part of the Norwegian Centre on AI for Decisions (aiD), https://aid-centre.no/, a national research initiative led by NTNU and SINTEF. The centre brings together around 60 partners[MS1]  from academia, research institutes, industry, and the public sector. 

Through aiD, the PhD project will be connected to a larger research environment working on hybrid AI–optimization methods for planning and operations under uncertainty, as well as applications in logistics, healthcare, energy systems, and infrastructure planning.

The PhD candidate will be hosted at the Managerial Economics, Finance and Operations Research (BEDØK) group at the Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management. The group is one of Norway's leading academic environments in operations research, logistics, optimization, and quantitative decision support. In addition, the PhD candidate will work in close collaboration with researchers from SINTEF Digital’s Optimization group, a leading research environment in applied optimization and artificial intelligence.

About the position

Robotic autonomy still lacks a universal architectural blueprint capable of operating across the wide diversity of robot configurations found in aerial, ground, and aquatic domains. Today’s autonomy stacks remain highly specialized to each morphology, in sharp contrast to the conserved neural organization of the mammalian brain, which provides a common computational blueprint across species despite profound differences in body plan and ecological niche. Motivated by this analogy – and building on recent advances in foundation models, neural model predictive control, and robotic world models – this PhD project will investigate principles and mechanisms for a shared autonomy architecture that generalizes across embodiments. The overarching ambition is to advance the foundations of a universal science of embodied AI, where perception, action, and learning are co-designed to support intelligent behavior in robots of fundamentally different forms. 

The PhD candidate will be supervised by Kostas Alexis, head of the Autonomous Robots Lab (ARL), and the position is part of the recently-funded Norwegian Centre for Embodied AI. 

About the project

Join a nation-wide team: The Norwegian Centre for Embodied AI (NCEI), one of Norway’s six national AI centers, is recruiting outstanding researchers to advance a universal science of embodied intelligence. NCEI brings together leading robotics and AI groups with key partners from industry and the public sector to study how intelligence emerges from the interaction between body, computation, and environment, across flying, ground, and aquatic robot configurations. Our mission is to chart a generalizable path for physical AI and transform how robot morphology and autonomy are co-designed, enabling new generations of systems tailored to their operational environments and missions. Successful candidates will join an international community with world-class facilities and strong collaborations across Norwegian universities, research institutes, industry, public agencies, and leading global institutions.

About the position

Aerial robotics have scored significant successes yet – interestingly – they have long employed body morphologies that merely represent miniaturizations of manned aviation concepts or have resorted to biomimicry. However, novel missions and environments require that we look into new designs and concepts both for the robot’s morphology as well as its control and autonomy. 

To that end, soft bodies offer the possibility to create flying robots with unique capabilities. By exploiting advanced materials, we can achieve anisotropic compliance – offering softness only in the desired directions of interaction – while maintaining light weight and high control authority. Importantly, body softness can be exploited by appropriately designed control in order to achieve enhanced safety and the ability to navigate particularly cluttered and high-risk environments. In turn, deriving such control laws represents its own challenge calling for the utilization of advanced techniques including but not limited to deep reinforcement learning and model predictive control. 

The position is part of the Autonomous Robots Lab activities in resilient robotic autonomy across diverse operational conditions and environments. The Autonomous Robots Lab has leading research in robotic autonomy and demonstrated performance in a collection of world-class projects funded by both European and US sources. For more details about our team and our publication track record, see: https://www.autonomousrobotslab.com/publications.html. Recent examples of our work can be seen in the following videos of our robotic experimentation: https://youtu.be/l8Su8OXsM-E & https://youtu.be/nS2WgZldIv4 & https://youtu.be/OO2P4N0drGc & https://youtu.be/C6l7Vklbc9k & https://youtu.be/o56wAkelRzU
