About

My team and I develop methods to control real machines to the limits of performance by learning from data. Based in the high-tech hotspot Eindhoven, our key application domain involves the development of advanced motion control solutions for precision mechatronics. Driven by the challenges occurring in future precision mechatronics, our research focusses on fundamental issues arising in learning to control complex dynamical systems from data with robustness guarantees. As such, it is primarily positioned in the field of system identification and control, intersecting with machine learning, artificial intelligence, and mechatronics. Applications are broadly addressed through collaborations with many companies and institutions in mechatronics, ranging from semiconductor equipment and printing to space and astronomy. In addition, we enjoy many fruitful collaborations with domain experts in the health, energy, and mobility areas.
