Prof. Radim Jiroušek, DrSc.

Radim Jiroušek is a student and follower of the distinguished scientist of Greek origin, RNDr. Albert Perez, DrSc. Jiroušek graduated from the MFF UK (1969) and received academic degrees from the Academy of Sciences: CSc. (1979) and DrSc. (1993). After completing postgraduate studies, he accepted Perez's offer and commenced a research career at the Institute of Information Theory and Automation (ÚTIA) of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. After 1998, he participated in forming the Department of Mathematical Decision Theory at ÚTIA, which he afterward led for more than five years. He also started teaching at the Czech Technical University in Prague and the University of Economics, Prague, and served in different academic positions for nearly twenty years at the latter. The international professional community knows Radim Jiroušek primarily for publications concerning the representation of multidimensional probability distributions and later for his theory of compositional models. He is the author or co-author of more than a hundred and fifty publications. His name is also connected with Workshops on Uncertainty Processing (famous WUPES), which have been organized since 1988. He also participated in the realization of several international projects. He was the local coordinator of three European projects within the fifth and sixth framework programs and the ESF EUROCORES project, The Logic of Causal and Probabilistic Reasoning in Uncertain Environments.
