The dissertation that will receive the award will be selected by a three-member committee of scientists from the area of Artificial Intelligence working in Universities or Research Centers in Greece or abroad. The selection will be based on the originality of the dissertation, its contribution to science and its expected impact. Dissertations with papers accepted at prestigious conferences, or journals of Artificial Intelligence will be considered more favourably.
