Early life
[edit]Nehorai was born in Haifa on September 10th, 1951. His grandparents moved to Jerusalem from Iran in the 1920s. He grew up in Kiryat Bialik, Israel. He studied electronics in Haifa’s Bosmat technical high school, managed by the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. He graduated with B.Ss. degree in 1976 and M.Sc. in 1979, both in electrical engineering, from the Technion. He received his Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Stanford University in 1983.[1] He worked at Systems Control Technology in Palo Alto, from 1983 to 1985, before joining academia.[2]
Career
[edit]Nehorai chaired the department from 2006 to 2016. Nehorai also serves as Director of the Center for Sensor Signal and Information Processing and holds courtesy appointments in the Division of Biology and Biomedical Sciences, Division of Biostatistics, Department of Biomedical Engineering, and Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Washington University. Before his tenure at Washington University, he held faculty positions at Yale University and the University of Illinois at Chicago.
He holds the title of Eugene and Martha Lohman Emeritus Professor of Electrical Engineering in the Preston M. Green Department of Electrical and Systems Engineering (ESE) at Washington University in St. Louis (WUSTL). From 2006 to 2023, he was the inaugural Eugene and Martha Lohman Professor of Electrical Engineering and served as the department chair from 2006 to 2016.[3]
Nehorai served as the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing from 2000 to 2002. From 2003 to 2005, he was Vice President for Publications of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) and chaired its Publications Board. He was also the founding editor of the Leadership Reflections columns in IEEE Signal Processing Magazine.[4]
Honors
[edit]Nehorai received the IEEE Signal Processing Society Technical Achievement Award in 2006[5] and the IEEE SPS Meritorious Service Award in 2010.[6] He received multiple best paper awards for his research, including the 2022 IEEE SPS Sustained Impact Paper Award.[7][8] He was named a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE SPS from 2004 to 2005. In 2001, he was named University Scholar at the University of Illinois.[9]
Nehorai is a Life Fellow of the IEEE since 2017, Fellow of the IEEE since 1994,[10] Fellow of the Royal Statistical Society since 1996, Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) since 2012[11] and the Asia-Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association (AAIA) Fellow) since 2021.[12]
