Welcome to my website. In these pages you can find a little information about me and my research.
I am currently a Research Assistant at the School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering at the University of Essex, under the BT NetDesign project funded by British Telecommunications plc. In addition, I hold a PhD in Computer Science. I obtained my PhD from the Centre for Computational Finance and Economic Agents, Department of School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering, University of Essex, under the supervision of Prof. Edward Tsang. I was examined by Prof. Xin Yao (Birmingham) and Dr Steve Phelps (Essex), and funded by the European and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). I also hold an MSc in Computer Studies (with distinction), also from the University of Essex, and a BSc in Economic Sciences, from the Department of Economic Sciences from the University of Athens, Greece. I am a member of IEEE, the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society and the Computational Finance and Economics Research Laboratory.
My research focuses on the use of Computational Intelligence to Business applications, particularly to Economics and Finance. If you are interested in it, please feel to have a look on my research page and also on the relevant publications.
Previous academic experience includes two 3-month research visits to AI-Econ Center, Department of Economics, at National Cheng Chi University of Taiwan, where I worked under the supervision of Prof. Shu-Heng Chen .
