«Judea Pearl has been the heart and soul of a revolution in artificial intelligence and in computer science more broadly»
Eric Horvitz, Technical Fellow and Director, Microsoft Research Labs
«Modern applications of AI, such as robotics, self-driving cars, speech recognition, and machine translation deal with uncertainty. Pearl has been instrumental in supplying the rationale and much valuable technology that allow these applications to flourish»
