Addressing Racial Bias in Face Recognition Based on Deep Learning Enabled Computer Vision

Durham University

Department of Computer Science

Facial recognition is one of the most academically studied and industrially developed areas within computer vision where we readily find associated applications deployed globally. Read more

Supervisor: Prof T P Breckon

Year round applications PhD Research Project Self-Funded PhD Students Only

Unified Power Micro-grid Optimisation Strategies for Data Centres (UPMOST)

Durham University

Department of Engineering

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is powerful. But it depends on data centres who shouldn’t be too much power-hungry. Did you know a single large-scale data centre consumes as much energy as 50,000 households? If you think that’s a problem worth solving, we want you for our PhD program. Read more

Supervisor: Prof H Sun

16 June 2026 PhD Research Project Funded PhD Project (UK Students Only)

Efficient and Robust Deep Learning based Perception for Autonomous Driving and Robotics

Durham University

Department of Computer Science

Today, autonomous vehicle and robotics research is a continuously evolving field and spanning all areas of AI autonomy, including perception, behaviour prediction, motion planning, explainability and safety critical AI systems. Read more

Agentic AI for Autonomous Things: Vision-Language-Action Models, Embodied Intelligence and Real-World Decision-Making

Durham University

Department of Computer Science

Artificial intelligence is moving beyond passive prediction towards systems that can reason, plan, interact and act. This shift is driving rapid progress in agentic AI - i.e., AI systems that can interpret goals, make decisions, use tools, coordinate with humans and operate in changing real-world environments.
