معرفی
Kaan UYAR is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Software Engineering at Near East University since March 2023, with continuous academic service at the institution since 1993. His career progression includes roles as Lecturer in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (1995-2000), Dr (2006-2007), Assistant Professor in Computer Engineering (2008-2011, 2013-2023), and administrative positions including Vice-Chair of Computer Engineering (2007-2010) and Chair of Information Systems Engineering (2011-2013).
His extensive educational background includes:
- BSc in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Anadolu University (1992)
- MA in International Relations from Near East University (1994)
- Pedagogical formation from Ataturk Teacher Training Academy (1996)
- BA in Public Administration from Anadolu University (1998)
- MSc in Computer Engineering from European University of Lefke (1999)
- PhD in Computer Engineering from Near East University (2006)
Uyar's research spans artificial intelligence, systems and control, engineering education, and e-government, with emphasis on practical applications of computational intelligence. His work demonstrates deep integration of deep learning for medical image analysis and neuro-fuzzy systems for forecasting, applied to critical domains including cancer diagnosis, disease outbreak prediction, and accessibility compliance.
Analysis of his 2018-2024 publications reveals three dominant research trajectories: (1) web accessibility assessments across Cyprus, Ethiopia, and the EU focusing on government, health, and retail sectors; (2) medical diagnostics using AI for lung, colon, and breast cancer detection; and (3) forecasting systems for public health (measles) and agriculture (food security) using adaptive neuro-fuzzy techniques. His regional focus on Cyprus and Ethiopia highlights contextualized problem-solving.
Uyar maintains active professional engagement through membership in the IEEE and Cyprus Turkish Chamber of Electrical Engineers, reflecting his commitment to engineering standards and academic discourse within regional and international communities.
