About Kit
Dr. Kit Yan Chan is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Electrical Engineering, Computing and Mathematical Sciences at Curtin University, Perth, Australia, a position he has held since 2013. He earned his PhD in Computing from London South Bank University, United Kingdom, in 2006. His research specializes in artificial intelligence and machine learning, encompassing deep neural networks, fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation, and swarm intelligence. These techniques are applied to wireless communications such as multi-access edge computing, non-orthogonal multiple access, simultaneous wireless information and power transfer, underwater acoustic communications, and vehicular networks; power system design and short-term load forecasting; traffic flow prediction; social big data analytics including credibility and sentiment analysis; and manufacturing process optimization for electronic packaging and new product development.
Kit Yan Chan has authored over 123 international journal papers, garnering more than 5,000 citations. Key publications include 'Neural-Network-Based Models for Short-Term Traffic Flow Forecasting Using a Hybrid Exponential Smoothing and Levenberg–Marquardt Algorithm' (2012, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 551 citations), 'Deep Neural Networks in the Cloud: Review, Applications, Challenges and Research Directions' (2023, Neurocomputing, 248 citations), 'Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization with Wavelet Mutation and Its Industrial Applications' (2008, IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, Part B, 332 citations), and 'Improved Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimized Wavelet Neural Network for Modeling the Development of Fluid Dispensing for Electronic Packaging' (2008, IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 222 citations). He has served as main guest editor for nine special issues in journals including IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, Neurocomputing, Applied Soft Computing, and Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence. He is an associate editor for Journal of Engineering Design, International Journal of Fuzzy Systems, International Journal on Artificial Intelligence Tools, and Sensors, and chaired a special session at the IEEE International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications in 2022. Chan received back-to-back Curtin University Social Impact Awards and the 2025 City of Perth Social Impact Award at the INCITE Awards for his contributions to the Kawu Balya app, supporting health outcomes in remote Indigenous communities.
