Short Biography
Dr Palaniappan Ramaswamy is currently a Reader in the School of Computing, University of Kent, UK and heads the Data Science Research Group. His research interests include biological signal processing, brain-computer interfaces, biometrics, neural-networks, genetic-algorithms, and image processing. To date, he has written two text books in engineering and published over 170 papers (citation indices: h-index of 30 and i-10 index of 75 with over 3000 citations) in peer-reviewed journals, book chapters, and conference proceedings. His pioneering work on revolutionary new areas of brain-computer interfaces and emerging biometrics has not only received international awards and recognition by the scientific community but also from the media and public.
