(Scientific Director of the Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms (MILA)

Canadian computer scientist Yoshua Bengio, OC, FRS, FRSC (born March 5, 1964), is best known for his work on deep learning and artificial neural networks. He is the scientific director of the Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms (MILA) and a professor at the University of Montréal's Department of Computer Science and Operations Research.Bengio was born in France to a Jewish family that had first come to Canada from Morocco and then to France. From McGill University, he earned his B.Sc. in electrical engineering, MEng in computer science, and PhD in computer science. Samy has a brother named Bengio. Bengio, a former Google scientist .Bengio completed his PhD while working as a postdoctoral fellow at AT&T Bell Labs and MIT under the direction of Michael I. Jordan. Bengio is a professor at The University of Montréal, where he has headed the MILA (Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms) since 1993. He is also co-director of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research's Learning in Machines and Brains project. In October 2016, Bengio co-founded Element AI, an artificial intelligence incubator in Montreal that translates AI research into practical business applications [19]. In November, the company announced that it would be selling to the American software company ServiceNow after failing to develop products that could be sold and losing several partnerships by 2020. The company was running out of money and options. The deal will to a great extent
