Talk on Data-Driven Control for Nonlinear Systems Using Semi-Definite Programming

March 03, 2025

Talk, 2025 SIAM Conference on Computational Science and Engineering, Fort Worth, TX, USA

In this talk, I discussed results on semidefinite programming for linear control design and a potential extension to nonlinear systems. I present an investigation of connecting stabilizability of the system to feasibility of the semidefinite program for control design. I also show analysis for specific classes of nonlinear systems.

ICVES Proceeding talk on Implementation of Pedestrian Braking Algorithm

November 14, 2022

Conference proceedings talk, 2022 IEEE International Conference on Vehicular Electronics and Safety, Bogota, Columbia

In this talk, I discussed the contents of my paper and my implementation of a pedestrian braking algorithm for an autonomous vehicle platform. This was a project that I completed during an REU at UNLV.
