Oriol Vinyals (born 1983) is a Spanish machine learning researcher at DeepMind,[1][2] where he is the principal research scientist.[3] His research in DeepMind is regularly featured in the mainstream media[4][5][6] especially after being acquired by Google.[7]
Education and career
Vinyals was born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain .[8] He studied mathematics and telecommunication engineering at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. He then moved to the US and studied for a Master's degree in computer science at University of California, San Diego, and at University of California, Berkeley, where he received his PhD in 2013 under Nelson Morgan in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
Vinyals co-invented the seq2seq model for machine translation along with Ilya Sutskever and Quoc Viet Le.[9] He led AlphaStar research group at DeepMind, which applies artificial intelligence to computer games such as StarCraft II.[10]
In 2016, he was chosen by the magazine MIT Technology Review as one of the 35 most innovative young people under 35.[11]
