The VinFuture Foundation is honored to recognize Professor Yann LeCun, VP & Chief AI Scientist at Meta, as the recipient of the 2024 VinFuture Grand Prize. Professor Yann LeCun is honored for his pioneering work in developing convolutional neural networks (CNNs), a key technology in advancing image recognition and deep learning. His work on CNNs in the late 1980s laid the foundation for the automatic learning of hierarchical image features, which has been critical in tasks such as object detection and facial recognition. Professor LeCun’s contributions to deep learning extend beyond CNNs, as he has also advanced unsupervised learning, energy-based models, and efficient backpropagation techniques. Professor LeCun’s innovations have driven breakthroughs in industries reliant on image processing, from healthcare diagnostics to autonomous driving. CNNs are now a standard in AI applications that billions of people use every day, making them central to the evolution of technologies like facial recognition and medical imaging.
