Prof. Gady Kozma

Looking Forward to illuminating the multidimensional geometry of a phase transition

01.11.2009
People and Events›People
Prof. Gady Kozma: "We aim to understand how geometry affects phase transitions. It's important to me to study possibilities in three-dimensional space that can be applied to the real world, and not just in high-dimensional space."
Prof. Shimon Ullman

Looking Forward to computers that "see" almost like humans and images with perfect focus

01.11.2009
People and Events›People
Prof. Shimon Ullman: "I expect the day will come when we can write a computer program that will learn on its own how to use vision to understand the world. The computer will be able to identify the situation it 'sees' through a camera (say a dog, ears back and tail up, facing a cat with its back arched) and to anticipate the outcome of the scene."
Dr. Anat Levin

Refocus

01.11.2009
People and Events›People
Dr. Anat Levin: "Computer files contain a lot of information, and I hope to research their properties to reveal new ways to get at and use that information. Interesting subjects for future work include dynamic range, color correction, motion blur and extracting information on illumination and the reflectance properties of objects."
Prof. Yakar Kannai

Looking Forward to predicting disease

01.11.2009
People and Events›People
Prof. Yakar Kannai: "I work at the interface between abstract mathematics and everyday reality. I expect to find ever more ways of using mathematics to contribute to an understanding of the real world, to benefit humankind."
Prof. Mordehai Milgrom

Looking Forward to interpreting the movements of galaxies

01.11.2009
People and Events›People
Prof. Mordehai Milgrom: "Of course, I enjoy the recognition brought about by my discoveries; but what is much more gratifying to me is the process I went through in trying to understand how the universe works and why galaxies exist as we know them – the knowledge that I've had a part in the revealing of truth."
Prof. Yoseph Imry

Looking Forward to envisioning free-flowing electric current

01.11.2009
People and Events›People
Prof. Yoseph Imry: "Soon after the Weizmann Institute was founded, my friends and I rode our bikes from Tel Aviv to Rehovot to visit the new Institute. That was a real adventure – one that exposed me to the possibility of doing science from morning to night. Since then, science has held more than one surprise for me. I'm awaiting the next adventure."
