Shun-ichi Amari is the 2025 Kyoto Prize Laureate in Advanced Technology. He has conducted pioneering research in artificial neural networks and established the field of information geometry, which studies statistical models using the techniques of differential geometry, thereby proposing many important theories. His contributions to both theory and application, influencing various fields, are of major significance.
hun-ichi Amari’s lecture is introduced by Aaron Maniam, Fellow of Practice and Director of Digital Transformation Education at the Blavatnik School of Government. The lecture is followed by a Q&A moderated by Professor Sir Nigel Shadbolt, Principal of Jesus College and Professorial Research Fellow at the Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford.
