My research interests include nature inspired models of architecture and algorithms for hybrid intelligent systems. It focuses on the development and application of real time recurrent hybrid networks to semantic mining to model emergent behaviour. Specific application areas of these techniques have recently covered behaviour parameter discovery for economic model dynamics and semantics mining for opponent strategy estimation in games play. Current work attempts to extend these ideas to semantic web intelligence through dynamical models of ontologies.
Past work with my research students developed algorithms based on picture grammar for licence plate recognition (J Cowell, 1990, PhD thesis), and investigated artificial neural network (ANN) and other paradigms for simulation and parameter estimation (M Cheung, 1992, C Goodwin 1997 PhD theses), multi dimensional pattern classification (A Cheetham, 1996, PhD thesis) and recognition of pictorial patterns such as Chinese characters (M Ren, 1998 PhD thesis). Work on multiprocessor parallelism resulted in: i) the development of a multiprocessor node interface for parallel processing, based on the processing needs of simulating non linear dynamical systems (M Hammes, 1989, PhD thesis), ii) a Petri-net based parallel processing compiler (N Nakhaee, 1992, PhD thesis), and iii) the design and simulation of a multiple pipeline coprocessor for ANN algorithms, but one with sufficiently general purpose properties to make it suitable for any algorithm involving linear operations on vectors and matrices (P Vindlacheruvu, 1995, PhD thesis). Other past work included performance estimation of multiprocessor parallelism to assess the improvement suggested by multiprocessor architectures which resulted in the Synchronous Server Farms operational paradigm.
