Biography:

Associate Professor Lee received his tertiary education in engineering (computer, adaptive signal processing, and telecommunications systems); business administration (strategic and operational IS planning and implementation strategy); and accountancy and finance in Australia, Singapore and United Kingdom. He was awarded an Australian Federal Department of Employment, Education and Training Scholarship for PhD research at the Department of Computer System and Electrical Engineering, The University of NewCastle, New South Wales. In his PhD research, he designed and developed several data-driven algorithms for adaptive filtering (optimum signal processing using operations research and linear algebra techniques) of spurious time series and cross sectional data. In May 1973, he was awarded a joint merit scholarship by Ministry of Defence, Singapore and UK governments for one year full time specialised Avionic Systems Training at Royal Air Force College, Cranwell in UK.

Prior to starting his academic career, he has had 13 years of professional engineering, in strategic and operational business management experience. He worked as Cost Analysts, Business Information Systems and Technology Consultants and Corporate Planning Managers for: General Electric (USA), General Motors (USA), Delco Electronics (USA), Jardine Matheson (S.E.A), Ministry of Defence (Singapore and UK), Singapore National Productivity Board, and Singapore National Computer Board, in Singapore. His industrial experience includes planning, design, and implementation of avionic systems (radar, navigational and computer-controlled weapons) fitted on board military aircraft, IT and telecommunications networks (architecture and topology), adaptive interference rejection and capacity enhancement for mobile communications systems, business process re-engineering projects, accounting information systems, electronic production systems, and integrated decision support systems for financial/business risk management with and without financial derivatives.

Before joining the School of Business Systems of Monash University in Semester 2, 2001, he has had 15 years of tertiary teaching with three other universities in Australia and Singapore, undergraduate and postgraduate teaching; supervision of research masters and PhD students from inception to completion. He has taught courses for industrial professionals, undergraduate and postgraduate students on adaptive signal processing, telecommunications network design and management, information theory and applied coding, financial accounting, financial modelling, computational intelligence techniques for investments and portfolio management, Internet Protocol for computer and communication internetworking, and technology management.

He is one of the teaching and research active academic staff. His current research includes: complex (interdisciplinary multiparadigm) adaptive systems (including artificial immune systems), integrated information systems for operational and financial risk management, data and text mining of business intelligence, multicriterion intelligent (hybrid intelligent system techniques - GA, GP, NN, SVM, EC, and Fuzzy Logic - for integration of knowledge extraction, data and text mining) decision support systems, behavioural based asset pricing models, evolutionary portfolio theory (dynamic asset valuation and allocation) in finance, information security investment modelling and evaluation. His teaching philosophy focuses on the use of problem-solving methodology.

Lee is first Chief Investigator(CI)for one ARC DP and two ARC Linkage grants and thirteen other nationally competitive grants awarded by Australia and Singapore enterprises and from not-for-profit organisations.
