Mourad Bouache
Affiliate, High Performance Computing Center
BioWith a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Montpellier in France and three postdocs focused on AI and Performance Optimization in the USA and Canada, I've built a career pushing the boundaries of what's possible in computing.
My journey led me to Yahoo, where I spent 10 years immersed in the world of AI, contributing to the company's evolution through its various stages as Oath and Verizon. I was deeply involved in developing and implementing AI solutions that powered key products and services.
This experience provided a solid foundation for my next challenge: leading AI initiatives at Intel. Now, as the Generative AI Engineering Director at Meta, I'm privileged to guide a talented team focused on shaping the future of AI.
Beyond my industry work, I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and inspiring the next generation of AI engineers as a lecturer at Stanford University. -
Matthew Thomas Bouchard
Graduate, Stanford Center for Professional Development
BioMatthew graduated from University of California, Davis studying Electrical and Computer Engineering. After graduating he worked in the visual effects film industry working at the premier companies of George Lucas' Marin county based Industrial Light and Magic and Peter Jackson's New Zealand based "Weta Digital" where he contributed to 8 Academy of Motion Pictures and Arts Visual Effects nominated films and 2 winners (Avatar, Pirates of the Caribbean 2).
Having completed his dream of working in film he more recently has focused on turning science fiction ideas of AR/VR and AI/ML into reality at companies like Apple, Microsoft, and Meta. -

Stephen Boyd
Samsung Professor in the School of Engineering
BioStephen P. Boyd is the Samsung Professor of Engineering, and Professor of Electrical Engineering in the Information Systems Laboratory at Stanford University, and a member of the Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering. His current research focus is on convex optimization applications in control, signal processing, machine learning, and finance.
Professor Boyd received an AB degree in Mathematics, summa cum laude, from Harvard University in 1980, and a PhD in EECS from U. C. Berkeley in 1985. In 1985 he joined Stanford's Electrical Engineering Department. He has held visiting Professor positions at Katholieke University (Leuven), McGill University (Montreal), Ecole Polytechnique Federale (Lausanne), Tsinghua University (Beijing), Universite Paul Sabatier (Toulouse), Royal Institute of Technology (Stockholm), Kyoto University, Harbin Institute of Technology, NYU, MIT, UC Berkeley, CUHK-Shenzhen, and IMT Lucca. He holds honorary doctorates from Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, and Catholic University of Louvain (UCL).
Professor Boyd is the author of many research articles and four books: Introduction to Applied Linear Algebra: Vectors, Matrices, and Least-Squares (with Lieven Vandenberghe, 2018), Convex Optimization (with Lieven Vandenberghe, 2004), Linear Matrix Inequalities in System and Control Theory (with El Ghaoui, Feron, and Balakrishnan, 1994), and Linear Controller Design: Limits of Performance (with Craig Barratt, 1991). His group has produced many open source tools, including CVX (with Michael Grant), CVXPY (with Steven Diamond) and Convex.jl (with Madeleine Udell and others), widely used parser-solvers for convex optimization.
He has received many awards and honors for his research in control systems engineering and optimization, including an ONR Young Investigator Award, a Presidential Young Investigator Award, and the AACC Donald P.
