  • Comment: Unfortunately this article is written almost completely ignoring Wikipedia standards, and many prior declinations. It contains overlong descriptions of his work which read like a CV. There are far too many claims which are bragging, WP:PUFFERY. Looking deeper, with a Google Scholar h-factor of 51 and no major awards he does not pass the notability bar, WP:NPROF. Plus there are large parts of his career which are unsourced.
    If you want to try again treat this as a serious research problem. Read other pages. Remove the claims and masses of less useful information; I estimate 1/4 the current size. Add awards (if they exist). Ldm1954 (talk) 12:45, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: The coverage of Ido Kanter is about the research and does not demonstrate significant notability about them. Needs references specifically about Kanter and not using the authors own papers for references to show notability. At the moment appears to be a bit of a CV.

Research

Ido Kanter specializes in models of disorder magnetic systems, ultrafast physical random number generators, theory of neural networks, neural cryptography, deep learning and synchronization among neurons and lasers and experimental and theoretical neuroscience, documented in more than 220 publications.[1]

Main contributions

Dendritic learning as an alternative to synaptic plasticity (with audio)

Using a combination of theoretical and experimental methods[2], Kanter has made several major contributions to a wide range of fields ranging from statistical physics and communication to neural cryptography and neuroscience[3]. These include pioneering a new field of statistical physics known as the inverse problem[4], bridging between Shannon theory and the second thermodynamic law[5], presenting a cryptographic key exchange protocol based on neural networks[6], and creating an ultrafast non-deterministic random bit generator (RBG)[7].

Kanter is currently focusing on the field of experimental and theoretical neuroscience, Kanter studies a variety of topics including the new neuron[8], dendritic learning[9], neural interfaces, and machine learning[10].
