Radhika Vidyadhar Kulkarni (born 1956)[1] is a retired Indian and American operations researcher,[2] and the 2022 president of INFORMS.[3]
The Bechhofer–Kulkarni selection procedure or Bechhofer–Kulkarni stopping rule, a stopping rule for maximization in Bernoulli processes, is named after her work with her doctoral advisor, Robert E. Bechhofer.[4][5]
Education and career
After earning a master's degree in mathematics at IIT Delhi,[2] Kularni went to Cornell University intending to do doctoral research in pure mathematics, but switched to operations research after taking a mathematical programming course in her first year.[6] She earned a second master's degree in 1979 and completed her Ph.D. in 1981.[2] Her doctoral supervisor was Robert E. Bechhofer.[7]
She worked for 35 years at the SAS Institute, including ten years as Vice President of Advanced Analytics R&D.[2] She is the 2022 president of the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS).[3]
Recognition
Kulkarni was the 2006 winner of the WORMS Award for the Advancement of Women in OR/MS of INFORMS.[8] In 2014 she was named a Fellow of INFORMS.[8][9]
Personal life
Kulkarni married Vidyadhar Kulkarni, another student of operations research at Cornell and later the chair of Statistics and Operations Research at the University of North Carolina.[7]
