Biography
Michael Jordan is Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and the Department of Statistics at the University of California, Berkeley. He received his Masters from Arizona State University, and earned his PhD in 1985 from the University of California, San Diego. He was a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1988 to 1998. He has published over 300 research articles on topics in computer science, statistics, electrical engineering, molecular biology and cognitive science. His research in recent years has focused on probabilistic graphical models, kernel machines, nonparametric Bayesian methods and applications to problems in information retrieval, signal processing and bioinformatics. Prof. Jordan was named a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in 2006. He is a Fellow of the IMS, a Fellow of the IEEE and a Fellow of the AAAI.
