Dr. Yeh is currently a chair professor of the Department of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management at National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan. He is a MOST fellow, CIIE (Chinese Institute of Industrial Engineers) fellow, and 2021, 2022, top 2% of scientists worldwide according to Stanford University. He received his M.S. and Ph.D. from the Department of Industrial Engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington. The majority of his current research and future work are focused around algorithms, including exact solution methods and soft computing to all kinds of network reliability problems and optimization problems (wireless sensor network, cloud computing, IoT, big data, energy), etc.  He has published more than 320 research papers in highly ranked journals and conference papers and has been awarded the Outstanding Research Award twice, the Distinguished Scholars Research Project once, and an Overseas Research Fellowship twice by the Ministry of Science and Technology in Taiwan. He has been invited to serve as an Associate Editor of the two top reliability-related journals, namely, the IEEE Transactions on Reliability and Reliability Engineering & System Safety. He proposed a novel soft computing algorithm called the Simplified Swarm Optimization (SSO) and the Binary-Addition-Tree Algorithm (BAT) demonstrated the simplicity, effectiveness, and efficiency of his SSO and BAT for solving NP-hard problems. He has been granted 57 patents and earns an International Fellow, the Guoguang Invention Medal as well as the titles of Outstanding Inventor of Taiwan and Doctor of Erudition, by the Chinese Innovation and Invention Society.
