Pieter Abbeel

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not satisfy academic notability or general notability. As noted on talk page, is a professor at a major university, but that isn't one of the academic criteria unless he has a named chair or distinguished professorship, which are not evident from this article or Google. Google search is that he exists and has a company. Not every professor or company-founder is notable. References are not substantial secondary sources.

 * A7 was declined on the basis that there was a credible claim of significance, but that doesn't establish notability, a stricter test, so I am taking this to AFD as not satisfying notability. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:07, 4 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Weak keep - this guy is a bit of a rock star in the field, known for work on inverse reinforcement learning and giving a lot of talks at conferences. He has an impressive Google Scholar (h = 60). Definitely at least as notable as other Profs I've seen on Wikipedia, and likely to become more notable over time given his young age. Danski14(talk) 03:24, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - has won a bunch of awards, he and his work are written about extensively. Also mentioned in other articles such as Apprenticeship learning.
 * All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 09:36, 4 September 2018 (UTC).


 * Keep - Sloan fellow, and many other honors, passes academic notability. Bearian (talk) 00:04, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
