Biography
Luca Furieri is an Associate Professor of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford and a Tutorial Fellow in Engineering at St Hugh’s College. Before joining Oxford, he was an SNSF Ambizione Fellow and principal investigator at EPFL. He received his PhD from ETH Zurich and his Laurea degree from the University of Bologna. His work has received the IEEE Transactions on Control of Network Systems Best Paper Award and the O. Hugo Schuck Best Paper Award.
Research
Luca’s research lies at the interface of control theory, optimisation, and machine learning. His group develops mathematical methods for autonomous systems that learn from data while operating in feedback with the physical world, with a focus on dynamical systems composed of many interacting decision-makers. His research is motivated by applications in robotics, multi-robot and logistics systems, and energy systems.
Teaching
At St Hugh’s, I teach mathematics and control theory to undergraduates in Engineering Science.
