Yoshua Bengio is Full Professor of the Department of Computer
Science and Operations Research, head of the Montreal Institute for Learning
Algorithms (MILA),
CIFAR Program co-director of the CIFAR program on
Learning in Machines and Brains, Canada Research Chair in Statistical Learning
Algorithms. His main research
ambition is to understand principles of learning that yield
intelligence. He

and Trends in Machine Learning, and has been associate editor for
the Machine
Learning Journal and the IEEE
Transactions on Neural Networks. Yoshua Bengio was Program Chair for NIPS'2008
and General Chair for NIPS'2009
(NIPS is the
flagship
conference in the areas of learning algorithms and neural computation).
Since 1999, he has been co-organizing the Learning
Workshop with Yann Le Cun, with whom he has also created
the
International Conference on Representation Learning (ICLR).
He has also organized or co-organized numerous
other events, principally the deep learning workshops and symposiua at NIPS and ICML
