Programming intelligent robots requires robust controllers that can achieve desired tasks while adapting to the changes in the task and the environment. In this thesis, we address the challenges in designing such adaptive and anticipatory feedback controll ...
Myoelectric prostheses allow users to recover lost functionality by controlling a robotic device with their remaining muscle activity. Commercial devices usually use a two-recording-channel system placed on specific muscles to control a single degree of fr ...
A multi-agent system consists of a collection of decision-making or learning agents subjected to streaming observations from some real-world phenomenon. The goal of the system is to solve some global learning or optimization problem in a distributed or dec ...
Recent works in aerial robotics show that the self-organized and cohesive flight of swarms can emerge from the exchange of purely local information between neighboring agents. However, most of the current swarm models are not capable of flight in densely c ...

In this work, we address the design of tightly integrated control, estimation, and allocation algorithms allowing a group of robots to move collectively. For doing so, we leverage a modular framework that allows us to define precisely the needed functional ...
This paper presents an adaptive combination strategy for distributed learning over diffusion networks. Since learning relies on the collaborative processing of the stochastic information at the dispersed agents, the overall performance can be improved by d ...
We conduct boundary element simulations of a contact problem consisting of an elastic medium subject to tangential load. Using a particle swarm optimization algorithm, we find the optimal shape and location of the micro-contacts to maximize for a given loa ...
Swarming behaviors are ubiquitous in nature, and an important topic to teach and learn. In the learning sciences domain of complex systems understanding, studies have shown that novices tend to assume that centralized control and leadership should exist wh ...
Within the context of contemporary machine learning problems, efficiency of optimization process depends on the properties of the model and the nature of the data available, which poses a significant problem as the complexity of either increases ad infinit ...

The automatic design of well-performing robotic controllers is still an unsolved problem due to the inherently large parameter space and noisy, often hard-to-define performance metrics, especially when sequential tasks need to be accomplished. Distal contr ...
