Shaul Markovitch [1] Shaul Markovitch,

an Israeli computer scientist, AI researcher, and faculty member in the Computer Science department at Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. He holds M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering and computer science from University of Michigan in 1985 and 1989 respectively [2]. His research covers machine learning and AI with the topics selective learning, speedup learning, feature generation, active learning, learning in multi-agent systems, opponent modeling, game playing, anytime algorithms, resource-bounded reasoning, reasoning under uncertainty, and heuristic search [3].
