Position Description
The candidate will participate in the R&D activities of FORTH-IESL within the COLOURS project, working on the development of algorithms and software applications for data modelling, analysis, and visualisation. These applications will explore data acquired using imaging and spectroscopic techniques to provide information on the nature and light-induced changes of photosensitive materials in coloured artwork. However, the researcher will also be involved in the overall research activities of the COLOURS project, which aims to develop tools and services that are fully interoperable with the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage. These tools will provide high-precision analysis and simulate restoration results with perceptual accuracy, while supporting interdisciplinary collaboration through hybrid spaces that merge virtual and physical environments.
