Dr. Rashad Hosseini, a professor at the University of Tehran, won the Rajabali Pour Award in the Applied Mathematics section.

Dr. Rashad Hosseini, a professor at the University of Tehran, received the Rajabali Pour Award in the Applied Mathematics section; this award is presented in both pure and applied fields, and its reception by faculty members of the University of Tehran indicates the scientific progress of this university.

Regarding students' interest in mathematics, he said that many want to learn topics quickly, but mathematics requires years of research, study, and patience to grasp the depth of concepts.

Dr. Hosseini, who has been interested in the mathematical foundations of artificial intelligence since his master's and PhD studies, divides his activities into both applied and fundamental parts. He explained that linear algebra, as one of the important foundations of artificial intelligence, plays a key role in the development of machine learning algorithms; algorithms that ultimately lead to technologies like ChatGPT.

This university professor emphasized that linear algebra is not only applicable in artificial intelligence but is also important in other fields such as 3D computer vision, where mathematical models of cameras are described using linear algebra matrices.

Dr. Hosseini also stressed the necessity of creating platforms for interdisciplinary collaboration among professors of pure mathematics, artificial intelligence, and other fields, stating that this interaction could lead to significant advancements in science.

This scientific award is designed and held by the National Elites Foundation with the aim of encouraging the learning of mathematical sciences in student and school sections, and it serves as a reminder of the value of research efforts in the field of mathematics.
