Yoav Shoham (Hebrew: יואב שוהם; born 22 January 1956) is a computer scientist and a Professor Emeritus at Stanford University.[1] His research spans artificial intelligence, logic and game theory. He has also founded and sold several AI companies.
Shoham received his B.Sc. from Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, and his Ph.D. at Yale University in 1987.[2]
Shoham is a Fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI),[3] of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), and of the Game Theory Society (GTS).[4] Among his awards are the 2008 ACM/SIGART Autonomous Agents Research Award, the 2012 ACM - AAAI Allen Newell Award,[5] and the 2019 IJCAI Research Excellence Award.
Shoham co-teaches two popular game theory courses on Coursera.org,[6] along with Matthew O. Jackson and Kevin Leyton-Brown, viewed by over half a million people.
Shoham initiated the AI Index, a project to track activity and progress in AI, which was launched publicly at the end of 2017.
A serial entrepreneur, in 1999 Shoham founded TradingDynamics which was sold to Ariba in 2000. In 2011 he co-founded Katango which was sold to Google in 2013. In 2014 he co-founded Timeful which was sold to Google in 2015. Following that acquisition, Shoham joined Google as Principal Scientist where he worked until August 2017. He later that year co-founded AI21 Labs, an AI platform company.[7]
