Bernard began his research work with a focus on adaptive filters, learning processes, and artificial neural models. Together with M.E. Hoff, Jr., he invented the LMS algorithm. Today, this is the world's most widely used learning algorithm. He has continued working on adaptive signal processing, adaptive controls, and neural networks.
Bernard is a Life Fellow of the IEEE and a Fellow of AAAS. He received the IEEE Centennial Medal in 1984, the IEEE Alexander Graham Bell Medal in 1986, the IEEE Signal Processing Society Medal in 1986, the IEEE Neural Networks Pioneer Medal in 1991, the IEEE Millennium Medal in 2000, and the Benjamin Franklin Medal for Engineering from the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia in 2001. He was inducted into the National Academy of Engineering in 1995 and into the Silicon Valley Engineering Council Hall of Fame in 1999.
Bernard is a past president and currently a member of the Governing Board of the International Neural Network Society. He is a member of the AdCom of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society. He is associate editor of several journals and is the author of over 100 technical papers and 18 patents. He is co-author of "Adaptive Signal Processing" and "Adaptive Inverse Control," both Prentice-Hall books. A new book, "Quantization Noise," is in preparation.
Prior to Stanford, Bernard was a faculty member at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He received the S.B., S.M., and Sc.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. |
