TAN Ah Hwee

Professor TAN Ah Hwee is a Full-time Faculty member and Lee Kong Chian Professor of Computer Science at the School of Computing and Information Systems (SCIS) at Singapore Management University (SMU). He serves as the Associate Dean (Research) in SCIS and leads research in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Health Informatics. His work spans neural networks, multi-agent systems, and healthcare applications such as Mild Cognitive Impairment prediction. He holds a PhD from Boston University (1994).

Research Focus: His research integrates adaptive resonance theory, federated learning, and spatial-temporal modeling. Key areas include knowledge graph refinement, episodic memory systems for Activity of Daily Living (ADL) prediction, and explainable AI in multi-agent reinforcement learning. He also develops technologies for aging-in-place support and social media analytics.

Recent Contributions: Recent work emphasizes hierarchical multi-agent models (HiSOMA), federated learning frameworks (FedART), and AI-driven health monitoring systems. His publications address challenges in self-organizing neural networks, context-aware reinforcement learning, and medical diagnostics through ambient sensing.

Advising & Impact: Advises students like TEH Seng Khoon and Cassandra TAN Hui Ming. His projects include the eHealthPortal for elderly support and Silver Assistants for aging-in-place solutions. Research outputs bridge theoretical advancements in AI with real-world applications in healthcare and smart environments.
