Submission declined on 13 July 2025 by Gheus (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: "He is known for his contributions to artificial intelligence, information theory and statistical inference"Then, in the opinions of other academics unrelated to him, what were/are his contributions to one or more among artificial intelligence, information theory and statistical inference? Hoary (talk) 11:39, 3 July 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for your feedback. I've revised the wording to avoid editorial phrasing and removed the “known for” construction, replacing it with a neutral summary of research areas supported by references. Is this better? ClawsAndEffect (talk) 12:52, 8 July 2025 (UTC)
Emmanuel Abbé (born 1980) is a Swiss mathematician and computer scientist. He is a professor at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne..[1] and a senior research scientist at Apple AIML[2].
He was previously a tenured professor at Princeton University[3], a von Neumann Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies[4] and a PhD student at MIT[5]. His research spans artificial intelligence, information theory, and statistical inference[6][7][8]
Abbe served as director of the Bernoulli Center for Fundamental Studies at EPFL from 2021 to 2024[9]. He was an associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory[10] and an AI expert for the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator (GESDA)[11][12]. He has given plenary talks at conferences in information theory and machine learning, and was a speaker on AI at the World Economic Forum in 2024.
He is also involved in the development of AI methodologies for cardiology applications.[13][14]
Emmanuel Abbe received the Bell Labs Prize (2015), the von Neumann Fellowship (2017), the University Latsis Prize (2011), the Frontier of Science Award (2023) and twice the IEEE Information Theory Society Paper award (2020 and 2025). His papers also received awards at the International Conference on Machine Learning ICML (2023) and the Conference on Learning Theory COLT (2021).
