François Chollet
François Chollet (; born 20 October 1989) is a French software engineer and artificial intelligence researcher currently working at Google. Chollet is the creator of the Keras deep-learning library, released in 2015, and a main contributor to the TensorFlow machine learning framework. His research focuses on computer vision, the application of machine learning to formal reasoning, abstraction, and how to achieve greater generality in artificial intelligence. Education and career 
Chollet graduated with a Master of Engineering from ENSTA Paris a school of the Polytechnic Institute of Paris in 2012 and started working at Google in 2015. His papers have been published at major conferences in the field, including the Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), the Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS), the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR). He is the author of Xception: Deep Learning with Depthwise Separable Convolutions, which is among the top ten most cited papers in CVPR proceedings. Books 
Chollet is the author of Deep Learning with Python, the co-author with Joseph J. Allaire of Deep Learning With R, and the creator of the Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC) Challenge. Awards 
On December 1, 2021, Chollet won the Global Swiss AI Award for breakthroughs in AI. Bibliography
