Call for Master's by Research Student (Full-Time) under Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS) 2025

We are seeking passionate, motivated, and research-driven candidates to join our FRGS 2025 project titled : “A New Adaptive Color Cast Removal Algorithm for Varying Illumination Conditions Based on Convolutional Vision Transformer Method.”

Project Duration : 2 years

Monthly Stipend : RM 2,300

Mode : Full-Time Master's by Research

About the Project

This research aims to develop an adaptive algorithm that removes color cast to enhance visibility and image quality in computer vision applications such as traffic monitoring, human and vehicle tracking, and video surveillance. By addressing color distortion from varying illumination, the work leverages a hybrid Convolutional Vision Transformer (CvT) to extract global and local features for accurate illumination map estimation based on Retinex theory. The goal is to advance image restoration techniques and enable reliable, high-quality performance in real-world computer vision systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Formulate a common feature between images in various illumination conditions.
  • Develop an adaptive color cast removal algorithm for varying illumination conditions based on the CvT method.
  • Conduct visual simulations and quality assessment to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
  • Validate models using real-world or simulated datasets.
  • Evaluate the performance of the proposed method with the state-of-the-art methods.

Eligibility Requirements

  • Malaysian citizen with a Bachelor’s degree of at least four years in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematical Science or related fields.
  • Must have obtained at least Second Class Upper to be eligible for a tuition fee waiver.
  • Have a basic understanding of learning-based algorithms and are willing to learn new mathematical concepts related to deep learning and vision transformers.
  • Experience in Python, MATLAB, or other programming tools is an added advantage.
  • Independent, self-driven, and eager to contribute to impactful research.
  • Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a national FRGS-funded research project in image processing and computer vision.
  • Gain hands-on experience in image processing, computer vision, artificial intelligence, and Industry 4.0 systems.
  • Work with a multidisciplinary team of academic and industry researchers.
  • An excellent pathway towards PhD progression or an R&D career in advanced image processing, computer vision, and artificial intelligence applications.
  • How to Apply

    Interested candidates are invited to submit their
