Our research follows 7,547 researchers, builders, lab leaders and public voices through cited biographies. Missing career records can lower counts. Outdated roles can overstate current counts and change ranks. Publication numbers from OpenAlex, as of 22 October 2026. Career and profile data as of 22 October 2026.
We estimate that 9 people shaping AI have worked or studied at University of Crete, including 2 (22%) here now and 7 with former affiliations. That total covers 5 people with work roles and 4 recorded only as students (3 both studied and worked here). Among 3,127 universities, University of Crete is tied for 404th by all-time people and tied for 351st by current headcount. Computer vision leads 4 areas of expertise (5 of 9 people with profile topics). Dated work records span from 1996 to 2026. Across dated career transitions, we record 4 full moves in and 7 out.
