Weng-Hooi Tan received his B.Eng. degree in Electronic Engineering and his M.Sc. degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) in 2017 and 2020, respectively. He subsequently obtained his Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, USM. He was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute of Nano Optoelectronics Research and Technology (INOR), USM, from 2025 to 2026, and subsequently served as a Research Assistant on a project involving III-nitride materials for power devices. He is currently a Senior Lecturer at the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, USM. His research interests include computational intelligence, soft computing, distributed computing, machine learning, and the development of novel swarm intelligence and evolutionary optimization algorithms for engineering applications, including photovoltaic energy systems. His research also encompasses nano- and micro-scale semiconductor devices, particularly III-nitride power devices and gallium nitride (GaN)-based high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs), with an emphasis on technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulation, semiconductor epitaxy growth, and device fabrication.
