معرفی
Abbas Edalat is a Professor of Computer Science and Mathematics at Imperial College London, and an Adjunct Professor at the Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences, Tehran. He leads two research groups: Algorithmic Human Development and Continuous Data-Types and Exact Computation. His work spans computational mathematics, psychotherapy models, and exact real-number computation. Notably, he received the LICS 2017 Test-of-Time Award for foundational contributions to logic in computer science.
Research interests include self-attachment psychotherapy, computational differential calculus, topology, and bisimulation in probabilistic systems. He has pioneered exact computation frameworks for real numbers, geometry, and dynamical systems, with applications in neuroscience and artificial intelligence. Professional activities include keynote talks at conferences like IJCNN and workshops on psychotherapy in Iran and the UK.
Teaching includes advanced courses on dynamical systems, quantum computing, and computational techniques. He advises PhD students globally and chairs initiatives like the Science and Arts Foundation to expand educational access in developing nations. His interdisciplinary work bridges mathematics, computer science, and clinical psychology.
