Judea Pearl publishes Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems, revolutionizing how AI processes information under uncertainty.20 This work introduces Bayesian networks, a formalism for representing complex probability models and the algorithms for performing inference within them. Pearl's methods allowed AI systems to make reasoned decisions in uncertain environments, influencing fields far beyond AI, including engineering and the natural sciences. His contributions are recognized with his 2011 Turing Award, which cited his role in creating the "representational and computational foundation" for modern probabilistic reasoning in AI.21
