Welcome to Edward Tsang's Home Page
I am a Visiting Professor at the University of Hong Kong,
where I teach AI in Finance.
I am an emeritus professor at the University of Essex.
I co-founded
the Centre for Computational Finance and Economic Agents (CCFEA)
in 2002, and took up its Directorship from 1st August 2009 to 31st December 2016.
I retired from the University of Essex on 1st November 2017 but remain active in research and consultancy.
I have taught freelance at Traders Training Company, King's College (London), Queen Mary College (London) and University of Hong Kong.
I have broad research interest in applied artificial intelligence. My
research can roughly be grouped into two overlapping areas:
constraint satisfaction
and computational
finance and economics. Click <here>
