Yoshua Bengio OC FRS FRSC (born March 5, 1964[3]) is a Canadian computer scientist, most noted for his work on artificial neural networks and deep learning.[4][5][6] He is a professor at the Department of Computer Science and Operations Research at the Université de Montréal and scientific director of the Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms (MILA).[1]

Bengio received the 2018 ACM A.M. Turing Award (often referred to as the "Nobel Prize of Computing"), together with Geoffrey Hinton and Yann LeCun, for their work on deep learning.[7] Bengio, Hinton, and LeCun are sometimes referred to as the "Godfathers of AI" and "Godfathers of Deep Learning".[8][9][10][11][12][13] In 2024, TIME Magazine included Bengio in its yearly list of the world's 100 most influential people.[14] As of August 2024, he is the world's most-cited computer scientist by h-index.[15]
