Current research activities
Professor Dahal’s current research activities lie in the areas of applications of computational intelligent/machine learning approaches for modelling, analysis and solving challenging real-world problems. The application domains of his current work are in the Disaster Management, Remote Healthcare Systems, Communication Networks and Electrical Power Systems. Currently, he is coordinating a consortium of 20 partners for EU Erasmus Mundus Action 2 ‘SmartLink’ project (2014-2018), which focuses on the applications of smart technologies to a wide range of application domains. He is the local coordinator of EU ‘gLINK’ project (2014-2018) focusing on the applications of smart technologies. He is also a co-investigator of the EU H2020-ICT-2014-2 “SELFNET – Framework for Self-organized network management in virtualized and software defended networks” project (2015-2018). Currently, 6 PhDs and 2 Post-Doctoral fellows are working under his supervision.
Desired research direction
Professor Dahal’s research direction is to develop hybrid frameworks to bring together inter-disciplinary Machine learning, Decision making and Data mining algorithms for solving complex problems in wider application domains. This includes Big Data Analytics for processing and learning from overwhelming amount of data generated by web, IoTs and sensors for useful information for problems, such as service delivery, cyber physical systems security, personalised health treatment, fraud detection, national intelligence etc.
Target collaborative organisations
Professor Dahal enjoys working across disciplines and with industrial collaborators, to solve important real-world problems. He is open to collaboration with organisations that are interested in Logistics/scheduling/event management, Big data analytics, Decision support and Data modelling. They include:
- Government and private sector companies
- UK and International HE institutions/research centres
- Consortium for research and innovation funding applications
