Maryam KamgarpourMaryam Kamgarpour holds a Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley and a Bachelor of Applied Science from University of Waterloo, Canada. Her research is on safe decision-making and control under uncertainty, game theory and mechanism design, mixed integer and stochastic optimization and control. Her theoretical research is motivated by control challenges arising in intelligent transportation networks, robotics, power grid systems and healthcare. She is the recipient of NASA High Potential Individual Award, NASA Excellence in Publication Award, and the European Union (ERC) Starting Grant.
Nicolas BoumalTeaching & PhD PhD Students Andreea-Alexandra Musat Past EPFL PhD Students Christopher Criscitiello, Quentin Rebjock Courses Continuous optimization MATH-329 This course introduces students to continuous, nonlinear optimization. We study the theory of optimization with continuous variables (with full proofs), and we analyze and implement important algorithms to solve constrained and unconstrained problems. Linear Algebra MATH-111(e) The purpose of the course is to introduce
Tony Alan WoodTony A. Wood received a B.Sc. degree in Information Technology and Electrical Engineering in 2010 and an M.Sc. degree in Robotics, Systems and Control in 2013, both from ETH Zurich, Switzerland. In 2018 he completed a Ph.D. at the Automatic Control Laboratory of ETH Zurich. From 2018 to 2021, he was a Research Fellow in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Melbourne, Australia. He is currently a Scientist in the Systems Control and Multiagent Optimization Research Group (Sycamore) at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. His research interests lie in the fields of optimisation and automatic control with a particular focus on multi-agent systems. The specific topics he investigates include system identification, task allocation, path planning, model predictive control, delay compensation, and formal specification satisfaction for uncertain systems encountered in applications such as energy systems, smart buildings, biology, and robotics.
Wenjie XuI am currently a PhD student in Electrical Engineering in EPFL, working with Prof. Colin Jones. I received my MPhil from the Department of Information Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. I am fortunate to work with Prof. Minghua Chen during my MPhil research. Prior to that, I received my BEng in Electronic Engineering and (dual) BSc in Math, both from Tsinghua University in 2018.
