Computational Intelligence and Cybersecurity

Computational Intelligence and Cybersecurity Research Group

Our research concentrates mainly on developing intelligent algorithms for solving different kinds of problems in high-performance environments. We are developing novelty methods based on Artificial Neural Networks, Genetic and Evolutionary Algorithms, Multi - Agent based algorithms, Game Theory, Block Chain algorithms. The main usage of the methods that we are working on are tasks scheduling problems in computational Clouds, advanced monitoring systems for grids and Clouds, security threats detection and defence, data modelling and recognition, building novelty cryptography schemas.

If you are interested in working with us, don't hesitate to contact us. We have a lot of experience in international research groups and we are open to new ideas!
