Kenneth W. Regan

Kenneth Wingate Regan is an American professor, chess player, statistician, and computer scientist.

[1] He is an expert in anti-cheating in chess, and was involved in investigating known cheaters such as Sébastien Feller, Borislav Ivanov, and Igors Rausis.

At the age of 13, he became the youngest person to achieve the USCF Master title since Bobby Fischer, a record which has since been broken.

[4] He commented during the Carlsen–Niemann controversy that his analysis of Niemann's classical games since 2020 found no evidence of cheating, though he still largely endorsed Chess.com's report which claimed that Niemann had cheated in numerous online games.

[3][5] Regan is a professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University at Buffalo.
