i-Recommeder: Intelligent Recommender System based on Interaction Analytics

The i-Recommender, is an intelligent system that allows users to not only access the product-recommendations, but also the dashboard systems. The i-Recommender contains three main modules which are recommendation system module, descriptive analytics module and predictive analytics module. The recommendation system module aims to provide personalized recommendation to shopper to visit the merchant at a particular retailer, which the shopper will most likely wish to purchase/subscribe the items/services. In addition, i-Recommender is able to provide an unified approach to visualize the interactions level of data, i.e., filter out the unnecessary, and provides the most relevant processed data for decision making purpose. The final deliverable of this project is software component (API-based) that can easily integrated to any online retailer platform.

Professor Postgraduate Students’ Paths

Under my supervision, I have 13 postgraduate students graduated (PhD and Master) and 6 active postgraduate students (by research).   I have also taught several postgraduate students by coursework. To me, every student is unique and every student has their own strengths. Thus, I treat all my students uniquely.  Most importantly, students need to aim and scope their proposal appropriately based on the degree level to ensure they are able to graduate on time.  Last but not least, passion is the keyword to success.
