Profile

 

Overview:

 

Professor Dr. Zarita Zainuddin’s research focuses on the improvement and development of neural network learning algorithms involving incorporation of acceleration and optimization methods into the training of neural networks for improved accuracy and convergence. These enhanced neural networks have been successfully applied to a wide range of classification and function approximation problems, from medical, including multiclass cancer classification and epileptic seizure detection and prediction, to crowd dynamics.

Apart from numerous publications, Professor Zarita has also been awarded several best paper awards presented at international conferences including the works on reliable epileptic seizure detention and prediction presented at the Artificial Intelligence in Health Workshop in Australia. In addition, in recognition of her innovative research, she has won several academic and innovation awards including the Malaysian Mathematical Association (PERSAMA)’s award (Innovation Category), twice, in 2008 and  2013, and the prestigious Malaysian Toray Science Foundation Award (MTSF) in 2003 which was awarded by the Japanese Toray Group of companies. 

            Professor Zarita has been a visiting researcher at Universiti de Quebec, Trois Rivieres, Canada (2003), Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA (2009), University of Central Florida, USA (2009), and Ummu Al Qura University, Makkah, Saudi Arabia, where collaborative research in Neural Networks and Crowd Dynamics have been established.
