Profile

George Panoutsos received his PhD degree in automatic control and systems engineering from the University of ��«Ӱҵ, ��«Ӱҵ, U.K, in 2007. He joined the Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering (University of ��«Ӱҵ, UK) as a Lecturer in 2010, and promoted to Professor of Computational Intelligence in 2019.

George has a research grant portfolio of over £3M from the UK EPSRC, Innovate UK, DSTL, EU Horizon 2020 and direct industry funding, as well as over 100 research publications in theoretical as well as applied contributions in the areas of computational intelligence, data-driven modelling, optimisation, control, and decision support systems.

In terms of applied research, the majority of his work is on advanced manufacturing systems, as well as healthcare applications, while also currently exploring research applications in energy and infrastructure.

Research interests

My research focuses on explainable and trustworthy machine learning (ML). Explainability is multifaceted in this context; I work on mathematical and computational methods in Computational Intelligence (CI) that enable enhanced understanding and transparent information use for neural networks, visual and numerical performance measures for many-objective optimisation algorithms, as well as linguistic interpretations of models, and safe control systems. Explainability and trustworthiness are key barriers in using machine learning in a range of critical applications, e.g. in engineering, and healthcare. A multitude of research questions still need to be addressed, for example how neural network - based systems learn and perform when information/data is imperfect, how can we exploit prior knowledge for enhanced learning, and how can we develop performance metrics that will allow us to understand the optimisation of systems at scale.

Towards formulating research questions in machine learning, I often use challenge-driven research e.g. in manufacturing, healthcare, as case studies. This way, applications drive the research questions, towards maximising impact. I also use explainable machine learning for translational research and to create innovation to address global challenges (e.g. sustainability, energy). The advanced monitoring, optimisation and control of manufacturing processes is such an example, where ML-based methods can be used to reduce material waste, and minimise energy use.

I welcome PhD applications in topics that fall under Computational Intelligence, in particular when these are concerned with explainable machine learning. Examples of recent PhD projects include, physics-guided neural networks, physics-guided generative models, new performance metrics for decomposition-based many-objective optimisation, information theoretic explainability in neural networks, safe reinforcement learning, and linguistic interpretations of Convolutional Neural Networks.
