Summer Research Program Intern 2027, AI & Machine Learning Researcher (Group 05-52)
About The Position
The Artificial Intelligence Technology and Systems group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory is seeking motivated undergraduate and graduate students to assist with projects addressing a range of national needs with AI and machine learning. This group has over 50 years of experience developing revolutionary technology for critical national missions, focusing on machine-learning (ML) algorithms, technologies, and systems for extracting information from multimedia-based data (speech, text, image, and video). The group has expanded its mission to include developing impactful ML technologies for cyber with top national cyber organizations, creating counter-cognitive warfare technologies, and leveraging expertise in deepfake, persona, and graph technologies. They are at the forefront of basic and applied AI/ML, shaping emerging AI fields and leading efforts in AI security and AI assurance across the DoD and Intelligence Community. Their work emphasizes developing, testing, and evaluating AI/ML technologies with operationally relevant metrics and datasets, with substantial opportunities to work alongside cyber warfighters and intelligence analysts. The goal is to transition AI/ML technologies to the Government for operational use. Staff members program, architect, and develop ML methods; create speech, natural language processing, multimedia, cyber, and graph algorithms; and present results at premiere conferences. Summer intern assignments may include research on state-of-the-art algorithms in signal processing, natural language processing, graph analytics, and/or adversarial AI applied to challenging, real-world problems. The successful candidate will work in a team-oriented development environment.
