Archie Singh Khuman

Dr. Archie Singh Khuman serves as Associate Head of Education and Senior Lecturer at De Montfort University's School of Computer Science and Informatics. An award-winning academic and proud DMU alumnus (BSc 2009, MSc 2011, PhD 2017), he specializes in Artificial Intelligence, Computational Intelligence, and Uncertainty Modelling with extensive leadership in curriculum development and Universal Design for Learning.

His educational background demonstrates deep institutional commitment:

• PhD in Computer Science (2017, De Montfort University)
• MSc in Intelligent Systems (2011, De Montfort University)
• BSc (Hons) in Computer Science (2009, De Montfort University)

Dr. Khuman's research pioneers hybrid uncertainty frameworks, notably the R-fuzzy grey analysis framework (RfGAf), bridging Grey Theory, Fuzzy Logic, and Rough Sets. His work focuses on quantifying perception-based uncertainty for applications in healthcare diagnostics, robotic swarm intelligence, and risk assessment systems, emphasizing real-world implementation through industry partnerships.

His publication trajectory reveals increasing interdisciplinary convergence, particularly in healthcare AI applications since 2021. Recent outputs integrate Grey-Fuzzy methodologies for medical diagnostics (diabetes, heart disease), sentiment analysis of pandemic communications, and adaptive systems in automotive/industrial contexts, demonstrating strong translation from theoretical foundations to societal impact.

Major recognitions include:

• Five consecutive Students' Choice Teaching Awards (2018-2024)
• De Montfort Teacher Fellowship (2022)
• Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (2022)
• Leverhulme Trust-funded international Grey Systems network (£124,997)
• Best Paper Award at Grey Systems and Uncertainty Analysis (2016)

As academic lead for the Data Analytics Project, he mentored students in developing machine learning solutions that generated £2.5m savings for retail partners. His grant portfolio includes Royal Society funding for IoT-based scheduling (£12,000) and leadership of the Race Equality Network. Current initiatives focus on transnational education partnerships and SI-PASS peer learning programs.

Dr. Khuman co-leads DMU's Institute of Artificial Intelligence research group and serves as School Governor for Inglehurst Junior School, maintaining active collaborations with institutions in China, Canada, Romania, and Spain through the International Network on Grey Systems.
