Biography

Prof. Daniel W. C. Ho received first-class honors in BSc, MSc, and Ph.D. degrees in mathematics from the University of Salford, Greater Manchester, UK, in 1980, 1982, and 1986 respectively. From 1985 to 1988, he was a Research Fellow in the Industrial Control Unit at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK. He joined the City University of Hong Kong (formerly City Polytechnic of Hong Kong) in 1989. He is a Chair Professor of Applied Mathematics and Associate Dean (Undergraduate Education) of the College of Science.

Prof. Ho has been a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) since 2017 and is now a Life Fellow. He is also a Chang Jiang Chair Professor, awarded by the Ministry of Education, China, in 2012. He has been named a Highly Cited Researcher since 2014 for ten consecutive years and is a recipient of the Stanford's top 2% of most highly cited scientists (2020-2023).

Prof. Ho is a Subject Editor of the Journal of Franklin Institute, Section Editor of Franklin Open, Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning SystemsAsian Journal of Control, Action Editor of Neural Networks, Editor of Cogent Engineering and a member of Editorial board of IET Control Theory & ApplicationsSystems Science and Control Engineering. His research interests include control theory, estimation, filtering theory, complex distributed networks, multi-agent networks, nonlinear singular systems, and stochastic systems.
