Alexander Nikolayevich VasilyevAlexander Vasilyev was born in St. Petersburg (Leningrad) on 10 August 1948. After graduating mathematical school ?239 with a gold medal and the Physics Faculty of Leningrad State University (LSU) with honors, he defended the Ph.D. thesis: New bounday value problems for ultrahyperbolic
and wave equations, in the Leningrad branch of the Steklov Mathematical Institute in 1978.
Working since 1980 at the Department of higher mathematics of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University as an Associate Professor and since 2007 as a Professor, he read advanced courses and electives in various areas of modern mathematics, led seminars.He prepared and in 2011 defended his doctoral thesis: Mathematical modeling of systems with distributed parameters based on neural network technique, for the degree of Doctor of Technical Sciences in the specialty 05.13.18 - "Mathematical modeling, numerical methods, and software." Professor Vasilyev's scientific interests are in the field of differential equations, mathematical physics, ill-posed problems, meshless methods, neuro-mathematics, neural network modeling of complex systems with approximately specified characteristics, heterogeneous data, digital twins, deep learning, global optimization, evolutionary algorithms, big transport system, environmental problems, educational projects.He is the author and co-author of three monographs, chapters in the reference book, chapters in two collective monographs, textbook (with the Ministry of Education stamp) - in Russian; he published about 180 works devoted to neural network modeling; he has Honors Diploma of
the Ministry of education of the Russian Federation, the Diploma and Awards of Polytechnic University Board. Professor Vasilyev is the Chairman, the member of the Organizing Committee of the conferences; he is the head, the central executive and participant of projects supported by grants of RF, a member of the editorial board of the "Journal Mathematical Modeling and Geometry."
He is fond of painting and graphics. The book "Semi-empirical neural network modeling" (with co-authors) is the first monograph in English. Read More Read Less
