Kok Yew Ng

I received a BEng (Hons) in Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering and a Ph.D. in Fault Diagnosis and Control System from Monash University in 2006 and 2009, respectively. I am now a Lecturer at the School of Engineering, Ulster University, UK, and I am attached to the Nanotechnology and Integrated BioEngineering Centre (NIBEC). My research interests include fault diagnosis, vehicular systems, modelling, and data analytics for anomaly detection and classification.

In 2014–2015, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Division of Vehicular Systems, Linköping University, Sweden, where I worked with Volvo Car Corporation (VCC) on advanced fault diagnosis schemes in vehicular engines using model-based and data-driven methods.

I am also a co-investigator in SAFEWATER, a £5 million project funded by GCRF, where I lead the development and the optimisation of embedded algorithms in the SAFEWATER project. These embedded algorithms will be used for controlling the low-cost water disinfection technologies that are being developed during the SAFEWATER project.

I am also an Adjunct Senior Research Fellow with Monash University Malaysia where I served as a Lecturer from 2009, and subsequently a Senior Lecturer till 2017.

I am a Senior Member of the IEEE.

I am the Moderator for the IEEE TechRxiv and the Associate Editor of IEEE Access.
