BACKGROUND


Evor Hines joined the School in 1984. His main research interest is concerned with Intelligent Systems (also known by other names such as Computational Intelligence) and their applications. Most of the work has focused on Artificial Neural Networks, Genetic Algorithms, Fuzzy Logic, Neurofuzzy Systems and Genetic Programming. Typical application areas include intelligent sensors (e.g. electronic nose); medicine; non-destructive testing of, for example, composite materials; computer vision; telecommunications; amongst others. He has co-authored more than 260 articles (including Journal papers, conference papers, book chapters, and edited books). He co-supervised some 40 successful research students. He currently leads the School's Intelligent Systems Engineering Laboratory and Information and Communication Technologies Research Group.
