Abstract: 

This talk takes a cross disciplinary approach, applying both traditional and advanced computational intelligence methods across econometrics, finance, AI, cybersecurity, and education. I will present a synthesis of interdisciplinary research spanning machine learning and neural networks for prediction, classification, and pattern discovery, alongside investigations into fraud detection and data balancing techniques. A central strand covers market modelling, e.g. financial stock market analysis through hybrid architectures combining ML, statistical analysis, time series forecasting, NLP techniques . Some of these methodologies have also been applied to study the impact of Virtual Reality (VR) on students' soft skills development. I will further highlight selected past and ongoing work in econometrics, data analytics, AI, and cybersecurity, including UK Innovate projects.
