Klara Kedem is an Israeli computer scientist, a professor of computer science at Ben-Gurion University in Beer-Sheva, Israel[1] and an adjunct faculty member in computer science at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.[2]

Kedem received her Ph.D. in 1989 from Tel Aviv University, under the supervision of Micha Sharir.[3] Her most well-cited research publications are in computational geometry, and concern problems of shape comparison,[ACH] motion planning,[KLP] and Voronoi diagrams.[HKS] She has also collaborated with philosophers and linguists on a project to decipher handwritten medieval Hebrew writings that had been overwritten in Arabic.[4]
