Timeline
Vladimir Naumovich Vapnik (Владимир Наумович Вапник; born 6 December 1936) is a computer scientist, researcher, and academic.
He is one of the main developers of the Vapnik–Chervonenkis theory of statistical learning and the co-inventor of the support-vector machine method and support-vector clustering algorithms.
Vladimir Vapnik was born to a Jewish family in the Soviet Union.
He received his master's degree in mathematics from the Uzbek State University, Samarkand, Uzbek SSR in 1958 and Ph.D in statistics at the Institute of Control Sciences, Moscow in 1964.
He worked at this institute from 1961 to 1990 and became Head of the Computer Science Research Department.
At the end of 1990, Vladimir Vapnik moved to the USA and joined the Adaptive Systems Research Department at AT&T Bell Labs in Holmdel, New Jersey.
While at AT&T, Vapnik and his colleagues did work on the support-vector machine, which he also worked on much earlier before moving to the USA.
They demonstrated its performance on a number of problems of interest to the machine learning community, including handwriting recognition.
He also holds a Professor of Computer Science and Statistics position at Royal Holloway, University of London since 1995, as well as a position as Professor of Computer Science at Columbia University, New York City since 2003.
As of February 1, 2021, he has an h-index of 86 and, overall, his publications have been cited 226597 times.
His book on "The Nature of Statistical Learning Theory" alone has been cited 91650 times.
The group later became the Image Processing Research Department of AT&T Laboratories when AT&T spun off Lucent Technologies in 1996.
In 2000, Vapnik and neural networks expert, Hava Siegelmann developed Support-Vector Clustering, which enabled the algorithm to categorize inputs without labels - becoming one of the most ubiquitous data clustering applications in use.
Vapnik left AT&T in 2002 and joined NEC Laboratories in Princeton, New Jersey, where he worked in the Machine Learning group.
He received the 2005 Gabor Award, the 2008 Paris Kanellakis Award, the 2010 Neural Networks Pioneer Award, the 2012 IEEE Frank Rosenblatt Award, the 2012 Benjamin Franklin Medal in Computer and Cognitive Science from the Franklin Institute, the 2013 C&C Prize from the NEC C&C Foundation, the 2014 Kampé de Fériet Award, the 2017
IEEE John von Neumann Medal.
Vladimir Vapnik was inducted into the U.S. National Academy of Engineering in 2006.
On November 25, 2014, Vapnik joined Facebook AI Research, where he is working alongside his longtime collaborators Jason Weston, Léon Bottou, Ronan Collobert, and Yann LeCun.
In 2016, he also joined Peraton Labs.
In 2018, he received the Kolmogorov Medal from University of London and delivered the Kolmogorov Lecture.
In 2019, Vladimir Vapnik received
BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award.
