SIU Prize Computer Science Season 1: Research on Automatic Inference Artificial Intelligence Wins Bronze Prize

The SIU Prize Computer Science Season 1 award ceremony has honored Dr. Trinh Hoang Trieu, senior research scientist at Google DeepMind, Washington, USA, with the Bronze Prize for his bold and groundbreaking doctoral thesis: “Olympiad-Level Geometry Theorem Proving without Human Demonstrations.”

Dr. Trinh Hoang Trieu’s research is both daring and revolutionary. In an era where artificial intelligence thrives on data, Dr. Trinh Hoang Trieu chose an unconventional path—developing a method for AI to solve Olympiad-level geometry problems without any human demonstrations. It is a bold declaration that machines can reason independently, without mimicking human behavior.

Defended in 2024 at New York University-a globally respected institution ranked 35th worldwide and 20th in Computer Science. Dr. Trinh Hoang Trieu’s work does not stop at competition-level geometry problems, it promises to be scalable, capable of tackling unsolved research mathematics—a frontier in theoretical and applied sciences.

With a novel and groundbreaking approach, Dr. Trinh Hoang Trieu introduces an entirely new framework for AI reasoning. Imagine a world where machines are not just tools but collaborators in scientific discovery, proving theorems and advancing knowledge independently.
