Biography
I am in data science and artificial intelligence at school of technology Bournemouth University, UK. I am featured in the 2022 World Ranking list of Top 2% scientist by Sandford University. I am specialized in Computer Science & Engineering. My research area includes artificial intelligence, soft computing techniques, natural language processing, language acquisition, machine learning, deep learning and computer vision. I am author of various books in computer science engineering (algorithms, programming and evolutionary algorithms). Recently, my book entitle “State of the Art on Grammatical Inference Using Evolutionary Method " has been published in Elsevier. I have published over 120 scientific papers in reputed journals and conferences. I am serving in the editorial board of reputed journals (including Neural Networks Elsevier, Applied Soft Computing Elsevier, Swarm and Evolutionary Computing Elsevier, Neural Computing and Applications Springer, IEEE Transactions of Evolutionary Computation, IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, Neurocomputing Springer, IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems and Knowledge Based Systems Elsevier) as action editor, associate editor, and guest editor. I am reviewer of top international conferences such as GECCO, CEC, IJCNN, BMVC, AAAI etc. I have delivered expert talks as keynote and invited speaker. I am a fellow of the HEA of the UK Professional Standards Framework (UKPSF) and have a rich teaching experience at the higher education level. I have delivered lecturers in the International summer/winter schools. I have been given the prestigious award “The Global Award for the Best Computer Science Faculty of the Year 2015”, award for completing INDO-US project “GENTLE”, award (Certificate of Exceptionalism) from the Prime Minister of India and award for developing innovative teaching and learning models for higher-education. In past, I worked as a sr. lecturer in computer science department at Edge Hill University. I also worked as a research fellow machine learning at the school of technology at Middlesex University London where I worked on a European Commission project- DREAM4CARS. My role was to research and develop advanced machine learning techniques relevant to the project goals and to evaluate these on both project & reference data sets. To lead and manage relevant work packages in support of the project, ensuring appropriate interfacing with partners.
Research
My research interest is in – (a) artificial intelligence; (b) machine learning; (c) soft computing methods; (d) grammatical inference algorithms; (e) AI based web application development; (f) deep learning; (g) language processing; (h) formal language theory; (i) software engineering and modelling; (j) neurobiology; (k) search and optimization algorithms; and (l) algorithm design and analysis etc.
As a postdoc research fellow, I worked for H2020-DREAM4CAR project where I learned how to manage a research project independently and in a team environment. I utilize my research learning to supervise PhD students; supervise MRes; writing quality research articles; collaborate with colleagues internally and externally; and writing research proposal in collaboration with others.
I would like to collaborate with colleagues across the globe for research publications and joint project submission for funding. I also like to collaborate with other department for multidisciplinary research projects. I have published research articles in top Journals which includes the following: IEEE Transactions, ACM Transactions, Elsevier Journals, and Springer Journals. I have played leading role in various research activities. Some of the notable activities are: Leading guest editors for top computer science and engineering journals; Keynote speakers for international conferences; Invited speaker for workshops; invited speaker for faculty development programs; session chair in International Conferences and editor for International Conference proceedings.
