Thomas Satyaprakash Anantharaman,
an Indian born computer statistician specializing in Bayesian inference approaches for NP complete problems. Anantharaman is known for his work with Feng-hsiung Hsu from 1985-1990 on ChipTest and Deep Thought at Carnegie Mellon University and the implementation of Singular Extensions. His 1990 Ph.D. dissertation was about A Statistical Study of Selective Min-Max Search in Computer Chess.
After teaching at Carnegie Mellon, Thomas Anantharaman currently works as principle scientist in the bioinformatics industry [2].
