La Rochelle\nis a city in the south west of France on the Atlantic coast and is\none of the most attractive and dynamic cities in France. The L3i\nworks since several years on document analysis and has developed a\nwell-known expertise in fraud detection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nwork done by the post-doc will take part of a project with a private\ncompany. The objective is to develop detection and verification\nmethods of the security visual devices in order to check the\nauthenticity of the documents. For example, some security visual\ndevices consist in adding a hologram. However, many other security\ndevices exist. The particularity will be to use the video stream of a\nmobile phone as the source of information. Some security devices will\nbe studied to determine the ones that are able to ensure the\nauthenticity of the documents. A specific acquisition protocol may be\nproposed to improve the robustness of the algorithms. Real-time\nimplementation of the proposed methods will be necessary. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Qualifications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Candidates\nmust have a completed PhD and a research experience in image\nprocessing and analysis, video analysis and pattern recognition.
