Research Interests
My research interests revolve around theoretical and practical aspects of decision-making problems in uncertain and dynamic environments, with applications in control and security of large scale and distributed engineering systems. In my research, I use tools from Control Theory, Optimization, Machine Learning, and Information Theory.
