Research
Prof Hussain's personal and collaborative research mainly centres around developing and applying novel cognitively-inspired multi-modal computational intelligence and machine learning techniques to a range of complex real-world applications. More generally, he is interested in novel cross-disciplinary research for brain-inspired modelling, analysis and control for engineering the complex systems of tomorrow - both theory and applications.
He has authored more than 300 research papers including around 100 international journal papers, 16 co-authored/edited Books and over 60 Book chapters. He has published in leading high impact journals including, amongst others: IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, IEEE Intelligent Systems, IEEE Computational Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on Communications, IEEE Communications Magazine, IEEE Sensors Journal, Neural Networks, Knowledge Based Systems (KBS), IET Proceedings on Vision, Image & Signal Processing, Neurocomputing, Speech Communication, (IET) Electronics Letters, Journal of Theoretical Biology, and others.
