朱迪亚·珀尔 Judea Pearl，是一位著名的计算机科学家和哲学家，他在人工智能、因果关系和贝叶斯网络领域的工作赢得了国际声誉。朱迪亚·珀尔被公认为人工智能领域的巨人之一，这主要是因为他的工作彻底改变了统计学、心理学、医学和社会科学领域对因果关系的理解。朱迪亚·珀尔是美国国家工程院院士，也是美国人工智能协会的创始成员。他发明了贝叶斯网络，被称为“贝叶斯网络之父”。他对科学哲学、知识表示、非标准逻辑和机器学习感兴趣，提出了一个高级认知模型。在2011年他因创立因果推理演算法荣获美国计算机工程协会（ACM）的图灵奖， 这是计算机工程领域最高荣誉。截止2022年，他撰写了超过500篇科学论文和五本著作。他在人工智能领域的开创性贡献无人能及。
成长经历
朱迪亚·珀尔于1960年在海法的以色列理工学院获得电气工程学士学位。
他于1961年在纽瓦克工程学院（Newark College of Engineering，现为新泽西理工学院，New Jersey Institute of Technology，的一部分）获得电气工程硕士学位。
然后，他在新泽西州新不伦瑞克市的罗格斯大学（Rutgers University）获得了物理学硕士学位。
1965年他在纽约布鲁克林理工学院（Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn，现纽约大学理工学院，Polytechnic Institute of New York University）获得电气工程博士学位。
他曾在位于新泽西州普林斯顿的RCA公司（现为Sarnoff Corporation）的David Sarnoff实验室工作。
之后还在位于加利福尼亚州霍桑市的制造商Electronic Memory, Inc. 公司（后来的Electronics Memory and Magnetics Corp.）研发计算机磁性存储器。
1970年，他成为加州大学洛杉矶分校的计算机科学教授。
研究领域
从前的人工智能领域以布尔代数为基础，陈述要么是真要么是假。朱迪亚·珀尔创造了贝叶斯网络，将现实世界中的模糊性引入了该领域。贝叶斯网络利用图论（通常需要结合贝叶斯统计，但不必需），允许机器在面对不确定或零散信息时能做出合理的假设。他在著作《智能系统中的概率推理：合理推断网络》（1988）中描述了这项工作。
朱迪亚·珀尔还全面研究了因果关系，即原因和结果的关系，并对这些关系做了数学形式化描述。他的著作《因果关系：模型、论证、推理》（2000）在许多不同的学科中产生了影响，包括心理学、社会学、医学和科学哲学。
朱迪亚·珀尔目前的研究兴趣包括：人工智能，概率和因果推理，科学哲学和科学史。
奖项与成就
多年来，他因在人工智能、人类推理和科学哲学领域做出重大贡献而享誉国际。获得近50项各类奖项（http://bayes.cs.ucla.edu/jp_home.html）
以下为重要奖项：
2001 年，他因提出科学哲学方面的最佳著作而获得伦敦经济学院授予的拉科塔斯奖。
2003 年，他获得了 ACM 艾伦纽厄尔奖。
2006 年，获得了 Civic Venture 的首届目的奖，该奖项旨在表彰 60 岁及以上在解决社区和国家问题方面表现出非凡远见的个人。
2008 年，富兰克林研究所授予他本杰明富兰克林计算机和认知科学奖章。
2011 年，他因对人类认知理论基础的贡献而获得大卫 E. Rumelhart 奖。他的母校授予他哈维科学技术奖。
2011 年，他获得了ACM的图灵奖，这是计算机工程领域的最高荣誉，以表彰他“通过开发用于概率和因果推理的微积分对人工智能的根本贡献”。
主要文章及著作
他就人工智能的各个主题发表了近500篇科学论文（http://bayes.cs.ucla.edu/jp_home.html）。此外，他在上述感兴趣的领域共出版五本著作：
1984 年，《启发法》 Heuristics, Addison-Wesley, 1984
1988 年，《智能系统中的概率推理：合理推断网络》 Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems, Morgan-Kaufmann, 1988
2009 年，《因果关系：模型、论证、推理》 Causality: Models, Reasoning, and Inference, Cambridge University Press, 2000; 2nd edition, 2009.
2016 年，《统计因果推理入门》 Causal Inference in Statistics: A Primer, (with Madelyn Glymour and Nicholas P. Jewell) Wiley, 2016.
2018 年，《为什么：关于因果关系的新科学》 The Book of Why: The New Science of Cause and Effect (with Dana Mackenzie), New York: Basic Books, May 2018
个人生活
他和露丝结婚。这对夫妇生下了三个孩子，其中包括在巴基斯坦被基地组织武装分子绑架并杀害的记者丹尼尔·珀尔。这位以色列裔美国计算机科学家和哲学家的儿子、华尔街日报记者丹尼尔·珀尔（Daniel Pearl）于 2002 年在巴基斯坦被激进分子绑架并杀害。
在他的记者儿子去世后，他与家人一起创立了丹尼尔·珀尔基金会。该组织的主要目的是促进诚实的报道和东西方的理解。它还旨在达到犹太人和穆斯林之间的理解水平。该组织在 2002 年和 2003 年同时获得了两个奖项。
