His research includes sensor technology, piezoelectrics, energy storage, and flexible electronics. His prolific academic output encompasses numerous journal articles, book chapters, and edited volumes, with his publications amassing more than 17,000 citations.

Dr. Nebojsa Bacanin received his Ph.D. degrees from Faculty of Mathematics, University of Belgrade in 2015 (study program Computer Science, average grade 10,00). He was the vice-dean of the Graduate School of Computer Science and Faculity of Informatics and Computing in Belgrade, Serbia. He currently works as a Full Professor and as a Vice-Rector for Scientific Research at Singidunum University. He is involved in scientific research in the field of computer science and his specialty includes artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, stochastic optimization algorithms, swarm intelligence, soft-computing, optimization and modeling, image processing, computer vision and cloud and distributed computing. He actively works in the domain of novel and prospective research field, hybrid methods between machine learning and metaheuristics, where metaheuristics are applied for addressing non-deterministic polynomial hard (NP-hard) challenges from machine learning domain such as hyper-parameters optimization (tuning), training and feature selection. Besides improving machine learning/deep learning models for tackling various practical tasks for classification and regression, his research also involves optimized deep learning models for univariate and multivariate time-series forecasting. Moreover, he is an expert from the area of metaheuristics, and he has been actively doing research in enhancing swarm intelligence, as well as other types of metaheuristics, by incorporating minor changes (e.g., modification in exploitation/exploration expressions, parameters’ adjustments, etc.) and/or major modifications by performing hybridization with other methods (e.g., low-level and high-level hybrid metaheuristics methods). He has been applying his methods to wide variety of practical research areas, e.g., cloud computing scheduling, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) localization, coverage and energy consumption, X-ray images classification, stock price forecasting, portfolio optimization, as well as many others.
