Scope and content

From back of photo: "M.M. Gupta (right) and J.M. Chudobiak of the Systems and Adaptive Control Research Group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering have developed computer techniques for predicting when failures are about to occur in rotating machines."

Bio/Historical Note: Dr. Madan M. Gupta was born on 10 April 1936 in Lansdowne, India. He received his BE (Hons.) and ME degrees in electronics-communications engineering from the Birla Engineering College (now the Birla Institute of Technology and Science), Pilani, India, in 1961 and 1962, respectively. He was awarded the university's gold medal for being the top graduate. Shortly thereafter Dr. Gupta was awarded a prestigious Commonwealth Scholarship to continue his education in the United Kingdom. As a commonwealth scholar, he received his PhD with a specialization in adaptive control systems from the University of Warwick in 1967. Then Dr. Gupta was recruited to be an engineering professor at the University of Saskatchewan starting in November 1967. Over the next 54 years Dr. Gupta was a prolific full-time researcher. In 1998, for his extensive contributions in neuro-control, neuro-vision, and fuzzy-neural systems, Dr. Gupta was awarded an earned DSc by the U of S. In 2010, he was one of only four professors who were honoured with newly created appointments as distinguished research chairs (now distinguished professors). Dr. Gupta won a University of Saskatchewan Prime of Life Achievement Award and the NSERC Outstanding Merit Award. Dr. Gupta's full-time research at the U of S started in November 1967, and he continued doing full-time research as director of the Intelligent Systems Research Laboratory until being hospitalized on 5 October 2021. Dr. Gupta died 8 November 2021 in Saskatoon.
