Amir Ronen
Amir Ronen (; born 1965) is an Israeli computer scientist. Biography Ronen studied at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where he earned a B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. successively. He then pursued postdoctoral research at Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley. After spending a few years as an assistant professor at the Technion, he joined the IBM Research Center in Haifa. In 2012, Ronen received the Gödel Prize, along with Elias Koutsoupias, Christos Papadimitriou, Tim Roughgarden, Noam Nisan, and Eva Tardos, for initiating and developing a new field of research called ''Algorithmic Mechanism Design'' (AMD). This field integrates concepts from theoretical economics and game theory (Nash equilibrium) with computer science concepts such as algorithm design and complexity theory. Ronen's work spans various areas, including algorithmic game theory, social network analysis, machine learning Machine learning (ML) is a field of study in artific ...

Stanford Artificial Intelligence Lab
Stanford University has many centers and institutes dedicated to the study of various specific topics. These centers and institutes may be within a department, within a school but across departments, an independent laboratory, institute or center reporting directly to the dean of research and outside any school, or semi-independent of the university itself. Independent laboratories, institutes and centers These report directly to the vice-provost and dean of research and are outside any school though any faculty involved in them must belong to a department in one of the schools. These include Bio-X and Spectrum in the area of Biological and Life Sciences; Precourt Institute for Energy and Woods Institute for the Environment in the Environmental Sciences area; the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS), the Center for the Study of Language and Information (CSLI) (see below), Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI) (see below), Human-Sciences ...
