The Nobel Prize<\/a> in Physics was awarded on Tuesday to American John Hopfield and British-Canadian Geoffrey Hinton for their groundbreaking work in the field of artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n

“For foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks,” the jury stated that the two were honored.<\/p>\n

The Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences said in a statement, “This year’s two Nobel Laureates in Physics have used tools from physics to develop methods that are the foundation of today’s powerful machine learning.”<\/p>\n

A Princeton University professor, Hopfield, 91, gained attention for developing “an associative memory that can store and reconstruct images and other types of patterns in data.”<\/p>\n

A 76-year-old University of Toronto professor, Hinton was charged by the jury with having “invented a method that can autonomously find properties in data, and so perform tasks such as identifying specific elements in pictures.”<\/p>\n

“I can’t believe that… As the award winners were announced in Stockholm, Hinton told reporters over the phone, “I had no idea that could happen.”<\/p>\n

A diploma, a gold medal, and a $1 million check will be given to the couple by King Carl XVI Gustaf in Stockholm on December 10, the anniversary of the scientist Alfred Nobel’s death in 1896 and the person who established the prizes in his last will and testament.<\/p>\n

For their work employing extremely fast light flashes to investigate the electrons inside atoms and molecules, Frenchman Pierre Agostini, Hungarian-Austrian Ferenc Krausz, and Franco-Swede Anne L’Huillier were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics last year.<\/p>\n

This week’s Nobel festivities kick off on Wednesday with the announcement of the chemistry award winner, or winners, and continue on Friday with the widely awaited prizes for peace and literature.<\/p>\n

Finalizing the proceedings is the Economics Prize on Monday, October 14.<\/p>\n

Since 1901, scientists Alfred Nobel and other prize creators have given out Nobel Prizes to people who, in his words, “conferred the greatest benefit<\/a> on humankind”.<\/p>\n
