Ahmed A. Abd El-Latif

Also known as Ahmed A. Abd El‐Latif, Ahmed A Abd El-Latif, Ahmed Abd El-Latif

Ahmed A. Abd El-Latif is a computer scientist whose AI research spans text classification and traffic prediction, alongside quantum-inspired cryptography. He earned degrees in mathematics and computer science from Menoufia University, completed a computer science and technology PhD at Harbin Institute of Technology in 2013, and received Egypt's State Encouragement Award in Engineering Sciences in 2016. He coauthored work on quantum-walk image encryption, a deep-learning classifier for AI-generated text, and BiLSTM traffic forecasting for vehicle-to-everything networks. As of October 2026, he is a professor of computer science at Menoufia University and heads the MEGANET6G Lab at Bonch-Bruevich Saint-Petersburg State University of Telecommunications in Russia.

Timeline

  1. 2005–2010

    Degrees at Menoufia

    He earns a BSc with honor rank in mathematics and computer science in 2005 and an MSc in computer science in 2010, both from Menoufia University.

  2. 2007–2018

    Teaching at Menoufia

    At Menoufia University's Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, he begins as a demonstrator in 2007, becomes a teaching assistant in 2010, and serves as an assistant professor from 2013 to 2018.

  3. 2013

    A PhD at Harbin

    He completes a PhD in computer science and technology at Harbin Institute of Technology in 2013.

  4. 2016

    An Egyptian research award

    Egypt gives him the State Encouragement Award in Engineering Sciences in 2016.

  5. 2020

    Quantum walks for cryptography

    In 2020, he coauthors a Scientific Reports paper that constructs substitution boxes from cascaded quantum-inspired quantum walks and chaos inducement. It also proposes pseudo-random number generation and combines it with the substitution-box method in an image-encryption scheme.

  6. 2024

    Detecting AI-generated text

    In 2024, he coauthors an IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence paper presenting a deep-learning classifier that distinguishes human-authored writing from AI-generated text.

  7. March 2025

    V2X traffic prediction

    In March 2025, he coauthors a deep-learning approach to traffic prediction for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) networks. It compares bidirectional LSTM with LSTM and GRU models and reports higher prediction accuracy for BiLSTM.

  8. As of October 2026

    Professor at Menoufia

    In March 2024, he is an associate professor of computer science at Menoufia University and Prince Sultan University's EIAS Data Science Lab, and leads a mega-grant program on AI for 6G networks. As of October 2026, he is a professor of computer science at Menoufia University's Department of Mathematics and Computer Science and heads the MEGANET6G Lab at Bonch-Bruevich Saint-Petersburg State University of Telecommunications in Russia.

From the biography and OpenAlex affiliations (the years of papers that list the organization), so some years are approximate.

  1. More people shaping AI studied at Massachusetts Institute of Technology than at any other institutionIncludes Harbin Institute of Technology. We estimate where the people shaping AI studied and where their careers led. Massachusetts Institute of Technology leads with 467 former students, including 291 recorded doctorates.
  2. The company share of AI researchers’ top papers was 31% in 2020–2024 and 8% in 1970–1974Includes Harbin Institute of Technology. We estimate where the people shaping AI worked when their most-cited papers appeared: the company share was 31% in 2020–2024 and 8% in 1970–1974, and Google led all organizations in 2020–2024.
  3. Google has the highest combined h-index among AI organizationsIncludes Harbin Institute of Technology. We estimate that Google holds the highest combined h-index at 8,016, while universities account for 73% of the deduplicated total across AI organizations.
  4. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology trained or employed 44 of the 187 AI major-prize winners, more than any other universityIncludes Harbin Institute of Technology. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology trained or employed 44 of the 187 AI major-prize winners, more than any other university. We compare doctorate and 5+ year employment links, career timing and current workplaces for 187 major-prize and 1,111 best-paper winners.
