Welcome to Xin Yao's Home Page

I am extremely honoured to be given the 2020 IEEEFrank Rosenblatt Award, an IEEE technical field award. It is a real privilege to be listed with the leading researchers incomputational intelligence.

I am a Chair Professor and Founding Head of Computer Science and Engineering Department at Southern University of Science and Technology, a part-time Professor of Computer Science in the School of Computer Science at the University of Birmingham and the Director of the Centre ofExcellence for Research in Computational Intelligence and Applications(CERCIA).I'm also a Fellow of IEEE, a Distinguished Lecturer, and a Past (2014-15) President of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society.I was a Distinguished Visiting Professor at the Nature Inspired Computation and Applications Laboratory (NICAL), USTC-Birmingham Joint Research Institute in Intelligent Computation and ItsApplications, University of Scienceand Technology of China, Hefei, China.

My research interests include evolutionary computation (evolutionary optimization, evolutionary learning, evolutionary design), neural network ensembles and multiple classifiers (especially on the diversity issue), meta-heuristic algorithms, data mining, computational complexity of evolutionary algorithms, and various real-world applications. According toThomson Reuters, I'm one of the Highly Cited Researchers 2016 (http://hcr.stateofinnovation.thomsonreuters.com/), one of the seven from the University of Birmingham.

I received a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award in 2012, and the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society Evolutionary Computation Pioneer Awardin 2013.
