Short Biography

My Research in a Nutshell:

My main interest lies in the development of faster and more efficient multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) for solving multi-objective optimisation problems. The goal of MOEA is to find the Pareto optimal solutions using the concepts of Pareto optimality. Hybrid MOEAs are exhibiting substantially improved performance than standalone MOEAs on different test suite problems and real-world problems. MOEA Based on Decomposition (MOEA/D) is a generic algorithm framework. It decomposes MOPs at hand into a number of different single objective optimization and then uses an evolutionary algorithm (EA) to optimize these sub-problems simultaneously.

I focus particular attention on developing Hybrid MOEA/D by using different techniques in its framework with adaptive manner. Algorithms of such type are currently under investigation. I have worked under the supervision of Professor Qingfu Zhang, School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering, University of Essex, Wivenhoe Park, Colchester, CO4 3SQ, UK. My subsidiary research interests include Evolutionary Computation, Single and Multi-objective Evolutionary Optimization, MOEA/D, Neural Network, Game Theory, Numerical Analysis and Mathematical Programming. I have published 80 papers in SCI and ESCI, Scopus Journals and different peer-review conference proceedings and book chapters.
