About me
Guanjin (Brenda) Wang works as a lecturer in Information Technology. Before joining Murdoch University in November 2018, she obtained a joint Ph.D. degree from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) and University of Technology Sydney (UTS). It was a wonderful journey in which she became well prepared for being an independent researcher with a continuing scientific passion. Her current research focuses on artificial intelligence, machine learning, transfer learning, data mining and interdisciplinary solutions to real-world challenges. She has publications in top-tier journals and conferences, including IEEE TCYB, IEEE TFS, IEEE J-BHI, IEEE TSMC: Systems, IEEE TNSRE, Neurocomputing and IJCNN. She is currently a member of IEEE and ACS, Associate Fellow of AIDH and Fellow of HEA.
