For prospective students

We are currently looking for students who are interested in the following research problems. Undergraduate students are expected do conduct their research within the Innovative Global Program and the graduate students will join Global Course of Engineering and Science at Shibaura Institute of Technology.

Design of controllers for a self-balancing robot system. This research involves nonlinear control, estimation, and FPGA programming.

Development of control and motion planning algorithms for self-balancing robot systems. We are interested in developing algorithms that run on a remote control unit that communicates wirelessly with the robot. We would like to address network-related issues (such as packet losses) in this domain. See our paper on a general networked control problem.

Design of data-driven control approaches for nonlinear systems. We would like to develop upon the techniques presented in our recent paper.

Research in our lab

Many practical problems in control engineering, communication systems, and statistical machine learning domains involve random phenomena or require handling randomized algorithms. We investigate such problems by applying rigorous probability theory. Particular application scenarios range from wireless networked control, Internet of Things, and cyber-security of control systems to artifical intelligence, data analysis, and automated driving systems.
