Academy of Engineering. He was previously Professor at the Courant 
Institute of NYU, at Ecole Polytechnique and Ecole Normale Superieure in 
Paris. He also was a founder and CEO of a semiconductor start-up 
company. He developed the multiresolution wavelet theory and algorithms 
at the origin of the compression standard JPEG-2000, and sparse signal 
representations in dictionaries with matching pursuits. His current work 
is devoted to mathematical models of deep neural networks, for data 
analysis and physics.

The Abdus Salam Distinguished Lecture Series receives generous support 
from the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences (KFAS).

Light refreshments will be served after Lecture 1 and Lecture 3.**

We look forward to seeing you at these special events.

Best regards,
