| Description of Research | |||
| My main interest is in developing intelligent systems to solve practical industrial problems. These intelligent systems may include neural networks, expert systems, genetic algorithms or heuristic search engines depending on the type of problem. These system must often include integration with a large existing industrial database. The challenge is in selecting the appropriate technique that can meet performance expectations in an industrial environment. Analyzing the effectiveness of these different learning techniques is one of my objectives. Another objective is to find the best way to integrate these system in an existing industrial environment. | |||
