American industrial engineer, control theorist and mathematician
A native of Terre Haute, Indiana , Stuart E. Dreyfus is professor emeritus at University of California, Berkeley in the Industrial Engineering and Operations Research Department. While at the Rand Corporation he was a programmer of the JOHNNIAC computer.[ 1] [ 2] While at Rand he coauthored Applied Dynamic Programming with Richard Bellman . Following that work, he was encouraged to pursue a Ph.D. which he completed in applied mathematics at Harvard University in 1964, on the calculus of variations . In 1962, Dreyfus simplified the Dynamic Programming -based derivation of backpropagation (due to Henry J. Kelley and Arthur E. Bryson ) using only the chain rule .[ 3] [ 4] [ 5] [ 6] He also coauthored Mind Over Machine with his brother Hubert Dreyfus in 1986.[ 7]
