Dimitra Panagou’s research lies in the areas of multi-agent systems and control, with applications in multi-robot/vehicle systems. She is particularly interested in establishing safety and resilience against adversity and uncertainty for multi-robot/vehicle systems using techniques from (networked) control theory, estimation theory, and machine learning.
My research interests include : Hamiltonian and Lagrangian mechanics, gradient flows on manifolds, integrable systems stability, the motion of mechanical systems with constraints, the relationship between continuous and discrete flows, nonlinear and optimal control and the control of quantum systems. I also interested in data-guided control and in particular the dynamics and control
of networks and systems arising from large sets, particularly in biological applications.
Gabor Orosz is an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Civil and Environmental Engineering. His theoretical research include dynamical systems, control, and reinforcement learning with particular interests in the roles of nonlinearities and time delays in such systems. In terms of applications he focuses on connected and automated vehicles, traffic flow, and biological networks. His research has been supported by the National Science Foundation and industrial funds. His recent work appeared in journals like IEEE Transactions on Automated Control, IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, and Transportation Research Part C. For the latter journal he has also be serving as an Editor. WIRED magazine reported on his experimental results when his team built a connected automated vehicle and evaluated it in real traffic. He served as the program chair for the 12th IFAC Workshop on Time Delay Systems and served as the general chair for 3rd IAVSD Workshop on Dynamics of Road Vehicles, Connected and Automated Vehicles.
