Research Background

Dr. Mohamad Haniff Junos is a Senior Lecturer and core artificial intelligence researcher within the School of Aerospace Engineering at Universiti Sains Malaysia. He completed his foundational B.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering from USM in 2013, followed by an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia in 2016. He further achieved specialization by completing his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from University Malaya. His comprehensive research profile covers deep learning architectures, aerial object detection systems, and high-performance computer vision networks. Academically, he instructs courses in control system theory and satellite communications engineering, and holds active affiliations with the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) and the Astronomical Society of Penang.

Current Research Focus Areas

  • Development of lightweight deep learning models for deployment on edge intelligence hardware
  • Computer vision based solar panel defect detection and degradation diagnostics
  • Autonomous drone-based flood boundary detection and mapping models using deep learning
