Jorge I. Poveda is Associate Professor at UC San Diego in the ECE Department. His group develops theory and algorithms for the control, optimization, and operation of autonomous systems. Applications of interest typically incorporate adaptive feedback control loops, artificial intelligence, game theory, and hybrid dynamics (continuous and discrete). Examples include robotic systems, cyber-physical systems (energy, transportation, aerospace), and biological systems.
Dr. Poveda's work has received different recognitions, including the 2023 Donald P. Eckman Award, the Young Investigator Awards from AFOSR and SHPE, and the CRII and CAREER Awards from NSF (see Awards and Service for a complete list).
