Pattern recognition, or the classification of measurements and observations, is significantly enhanced through the application of computational intelligence techniques. With surging demand for efficient and high-performance automated pattern recognition, breakthroughs are being made in emerging areas such as video and image processing, medical imaging, biometric security, Web intelligence, social media mining, and human-machine interaction with language, among others, with applications to smart city development and health care.

The Department of Computing has established a solid foundation in Algorithm and Theory, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Analytics, Cyber Security and Privacy, Networking and Mobile Computing, and System Modelling and Software Engineering.

Our students’ cutting-edge research is supported by enthusiastic faculty members and support staff who ensure that the Department provides them with a positive and nurturing academic environment.

The Department also ensures that all research students have opportunities to enrich their research experience through research exchange visits, attendance at leading international conferences and participation in global competitions and departmental projects.

The Department’s global network crosses disciplines and bridges industries, offering our students ample career opportunities, resources and access to research funding.
