Shraman Kar
Undergraduate, Computer Science
BioShraman is passionate about building technology projects using artificial intelligence and state-of-the-art large language models to solve problems of the community and the environment. Shraman's passion project, Foodle (www.thefoodle.org) built on technology and artificial intelligence could make a difference in solving hunger and food waste at the same time. He wanted to share his knowledge and ideas with as many youths as possible so that together they can build technology products for the communities.
To unleash the potential of AI for social good Shraman cofounded a 501(c)(3) organization Community AI (www.thecommunityai.org) in the year 2000. They created a customized course of Machine Learning suitable for a wide range of school-going youth and delivered via free camps. The camps became very popular and they could mentor students from 58 countries and all 50 US states. The members have several projects to help the community and the environment- ranging from automatic trash segregation to detecting wildfire before it happens and many more. To encourage more students to build AI-driven projects we provided funds/prizes via the AI Fair called Sustainability and Community AI Fair (www.communityaifair.com). -

Oussama Khatib
Weichai Professor and Professor, by courtesy, of Electrical Engineering
BioRobotics research on novel control architectures, algorithms, sensing, and human-friendly designs for advanced capabilities in complex environments. With a focus on enabling robots to interact cooperatively and safely with humans and the physical world, these studies bring understanding of human movements for therapy, athletic training, and performance enhancement. Our work on understanding human cognitive task representation and physical skills is enabling transfer for increased robot autonomy. With these core capabilities, we are exploring applications in healthcare and wellness, industry and service, farms and smart cities, and dangerous and unreachable settings -- deep in oceans, mines, and space.

Donald Knuth
Fletcher Jones Professor of Computer Science, Emeritus
BioDonald Ervin Knuth is an American computer scientist, mathematician, and Professor Emeritus at Stanford University.
He is the author of the multi-volume work The Art of Computer Programming and has been called the "father" of the analysis of algorithms. He contributed to the development of the rigorous analysis of the computational complexity of algorithms and systematized formal mathematical techniques for it. In the process he also popularized the asymptotic notation. In addition to fundamental contributions in several branches of theoretical computer science, Knuth is the creator of the TeX computer typesetting system, the related METAFONT font definition language and rendering system, and the Computer Modern family of typefaces.
As a writer and scholar,[4] Knuth created the WEB and CWEB computer programming systems designed to encourage and facilitate literate programming, and designed the MIX/MMIX instruction set architectures. As a member of the academic and scientific community, Knuth is strongly opposed to the policy of granting software patents. He has expressed his disagreement directly to the patent offices of the United States and Europe. (via Wikipedia) -
Sanmi Koyejo
Assistant Professor of Computer Science
BioSanmi Koyejo is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Stanford University and an adjunct Associate Professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He leads the Stanford Trustworthy AI Research (STAIR) lab, which develops measurement-theoretic foundations for trustworthy AI systems, spanning AI evaluation science, algorithmic accountability, and privacy-preserving machine learning, with applications to healthcare and scientific discovery. His research on AI capabilities evaluation has challenged conventional understanding in the field, including work on measurement frameworks cited in the 2024 Economic Report of the President.
Koyejo has received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), Skip Ellis Early Career Award, Alfred P.
