Evgeniy Gabrilovich is a prominent Computer Scientist at Yahoo! Research, specializing in Information Retrieval, Machine Learning, and Computational Linguistics, and a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

In 2002, Gabrilovich published a research paper documenting the possibility of an IDN homograph attack, with fellow researcher Alex Gontmakher.

In 2005, Gabrilovich earned his PhD degree in Computer Science from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. In his Ph.D. thesis, he developed a methodology for using large scale repositories of world knowledge, such as Wikipedia, as a basis for improvement of text representations.

On November 6, 2007, Gabrilovich was granted a US patent for a new method for personalizing newsfeeds, via an analysis of information novelty and dynamics. Later that year, Gabrilovich has also published, together with Prof. Shaul Markovitch, a series of articles suggesting a possible synergy between Wikipedia and Artificial Intelligence.
