Jacek Karpinski

Jacek Karpinski (born 1934) is a Polish mathematician and computer scientist. He made significant contributions to the field of computational complexity theory, particularly in the study of polynomial-time algorithms and circuit complexity. Karpinski's work has advanced our understanding of the inherent complexity of computational problems and has had a lasting impact on theoretical computer science.

Developed the first differential analyzer using transistors; developed one of the first machine-learning algorithms for character and image recognition; invented of one of the first minicomputers, the K-202

Jacek Karpiński was a Polish pioneer in computer engineering and computer science.
