人物經歷

吳恩達1976年出生於倫敦,父親是一位香港醫生,英文名叫Andrew Ng,吳恩達年輕時候在香港和新加坡度過。1992年吳恩達就讀新加坡萊佛士書院,並於1997年獲得了卡內基梅隆大學的計算機科學學士學位。之後他在1998年獲得了麻省理工學院的碩士學位,並於2002年獲得了加州大學伯克利分校的博士學位,並從這年開始在史丹福大學工作。他(2002年)住在加利福尼亞州的帕洛阿爾托。
吳恩達是史丹福大學計算機科學系和電子工程系副教授,人工智慧實驗室主任。吳恩達主要成就在機器學習和人工智慧領域,他是人工智慧和機器學習領域最權威的學者之一。
2010年,時任史丹福大學教授的吳恩達加入谷歌開發團隊XLab——這個團隊已先後為谷歌開發無人駕駛汽車和谷歌眼鏡兩個知名項目。
吳恩達與谷歌頂級工程師開始合作建立全球最大的“神經網路”,這個神經網路能以與人類大腦學習新事物相同的方式來學習現實生活。谷歌將這個項目命名為“谷歌大腦”。
吳恩達最知名的是,所開發的人工神經網路通過觀看一周YouTube視頻,自主學會識別哪些是關於貓的視頻。這個案例為人工智慧領域翻開嶄新一頁。吳恩達表示,未來將會在谷歌無人駕駛汽車上使用該項技術,來識別車前面的動物或者小孩,從而及時躲避。
2014年5月16日,百度宣布吳恩達加入百度,擔任百度公司首席科學家,負責百度研究院的領導工作,尤其是Baidu Brain計畫。
2014年5月19日,百度宣布任命吳恩達博士為百度首席科學家,全面負責百度研究院。這是中國網際網路公司迄今為止引進的最重量級人物。訊息一經公布,就成為國際科技界的關注話題。美國權威雜誌《麻省理工科技評論》(MIT Technology Review)甚至用充滿激情的筆調對未來給予展望:“百度將領導一個創新的軟體技術時代,更加了解世界。”

個人生活

2019年2月20日,華裔機器學習專家吳恩達(Andrew Ng)和妻子卡羅爾·萊利(Carol Reiley)在公開信中宣布,他們的第一個孩子Nova誕生了。Nova全名Nova Athena Ng,出生於2019年2月7日,大年初三的上午7點11分,體重6磅10盎司(約3kg),是個女孩。在英語中,Nova意為新星。

研究領域

機器學習和人工智慧,研究重點是深度學習(Deep Learning)。

所獲榮譽

2007年,吳恩達獲得斯隆獎(Sloan Fellowship)。
2008年,吳恩達入選“the MIT Technology Review TR35”,即《麻省理工科技創業》雜誌評選出的科技創新35俊傑,入選者是35歲以下的35個世界上最頂級的創新者之一。
“計算機和思想獎”的獲得者。
2013年,吳恩達入選《時代》雜誌年度全球最有影響力100人,成為16位科技界代表之一。

主要成就

機器學習

吳恩達早期的工作包括斯坦福自動控制直升機項目,吳恩達團隊開發了世界上最先進的自動控制直升機之一。
吳恩達同時也是機器學習、機器人技術和相關領域的100多篇論文的作者或合作者,他在計算機視覺的一些工作被一系列的出版物和評論文章所重點引用。

人工智慧

早期的另一項工作是the STAIR (Stanford Artificial Intelligence Robot) project,即斯坦福人工智慧機器人項目,項目最終開發了廣泛使用的開源機器人技術軟體平台ROS。
2011年,吳恩達在谷歌成立了“Google Brain”項目,這個項目利用谷歌的分散式計算框架計算和學習大規模人工神經網路。這個項目重要研究成果是,在16000個CPU核心上利用深度學習算法學習到的10億參數的神經網路,能夠在沒有任何先驗知識的情況下,僅僅通過觀看無標註的YouTube的視頻學習到識別高級別的概念,如貓,這就是著名的“Google Cat”。這個項目的技術已經被套用到了安卓作業系統的語音識別系統上。
