I am Mohamed Loey, an Associate Professor in the Computer Science Department within the Faculty of Computers and Artificial Intelligence at Benha University, Egypt.

My research focuses on the development of advanced Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning models to solve complex real-world problems. Specifically, I specialize in designing smart and reliable solutions using Machine Learning and Deep Learning architectures, including Generative AI and multimodal learning.

My research interests include:

  • Medical image analysis for building intelligent healthcare diagnosis systems using imaging and signal processing.
  • Cybersecurity and digital forensics, focusing on threat detection, privacy protection, and secure network usage.
  • Computer vision applications, such as face mask detection and plant disease identification.
  • Natural Language Processing and speech recognition, including the classification of cough sound symptoms and generating images from Arabic text.
  • Performance optimization and modeling of nonlinear and complex systems using simulation tools and hybrid algorithms.

I have been recognized for my global research impact by being listed among the World's Top 2% Scientists for four consecutive years: 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025, according to rankings released by Stanford University and Scopus.
