Short description: American computer scientist

Barbara Hayes-Roth is an American computer scientist and psychologist whose research in artificial intelligence includes work on knowledge acquisition,[A] automated planning and scheduling,[B] spatial cognition,[C] the blackboard system,[D] adaptation,[E] and intelligent behavior in interactive storytelling.[F] She is a senior research scientist and lecturer in computer science at Stanford University.[1]

Education and career

Hayes-Roth majored in psychology at Boston University, graduating magna cum laude in 1971. She went to the University of Michigan for graduate study in psychology, earning a master's degree in 1973 and completing her Ph.D. in 1974.[1] Her dissertation, Interactions in the Acquisition and Utilization of Structured Knowledge, was supervised by James Greeno.[2]

She became a researcher at Bell Laboratories from 1974 to 1976, and at the RAND Corporation from 1976 to 1982, also holding a position as consulting assistant professor in psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles. She became a senior research scientist and lecturer at Stanford in 1982.[1]
