Research

My research program focuses on developing advanced real-time reasoning capabilities in the areas of estimation and control. My main area of application interest is enhancing the capabilities of intelligent autonomous agents (e.g., vehicles). My research program addresses both theory and practice, leading to significant industrial interaction and consulting. I strive to have each publication contain a rigorous theoretical solution to an open problem and an application of the new solution either in practice or simulation. Building on this research approach, I have several sustained and emerging research directions. My research on real-time function approximation for control started in the early 1990’s and continues to the present, having produced 19 journal and 46 conference articles and one book. The book and several publications are the result of international collaborations. Recent innovations in this research include: development and analysis of a performance driven, Lyapunov based, self-organized function approximation method; and, development and analysis of the command filtered backstepping method and its application to aircraft and underwater vehicles. My research in precision vehicle navigation, achieving decimeter position accuracy in real-time for highway “where in lane” applications, has been ongoing with continuous funding since the mid 1990’s, yielding 8 journal and 28 conference articles as well as two well received books. This research yielded the first demonstrations of centimeter accuracy differential GPS aided INS and the uses of that method for car control, bus control, and snowplow guidance. For this work, I was identified as a 2009/2010 GNSS Leader to Watch by GPS World Magazine. This research has recently expanded to include funded work on precision automated roadway mapping, which is identified as a necessary technology for future intelligent transportation applications by the FHWA. From 1997-2000, a DARPA effort had 10 teams, each with at least one biologist and one engineer, compete to extend biological chemical plume tracing (CPT) to autonomous vehicles. I collaborated on this interdisciplinary effort with Ring Carde of UCR’s entomology department. Other teams were from Sandia, U. of Arizona, Georgia Tech, CalTech, Stanford, UCB, Cornell, Boston U., etc. UCR was the only team selected to continue from 2000-2004 with ONR funding to develop, implement, and demonstrate a working system with the US Navy on a small submersible vehicle. The UCR system was successfully demonstrated in near-shore ocean conditions at Duck NC to trace a plume for 975m and estimate the source location with an accuracy of 13 m. This is by far the largest successful CPT test and demonstration ever by an engineered system. In addition to the demonstration success, the research effort generated 6 well-cited journal and 5 conference articles, a lot of fun, and learning about new fields by biologists, engineers, and naval personnel, one of whom subsequently came to UCR to complete his Ph.D. A recent new direction of research is developing collaborative multiagent camera networks to enable and enhance system performance for security applications. Since 2006, this research direction has yielded 7 journal and 12 conference articles.  

 

The quality and quantity of my research is demonstrated to be exceptional by various metrics.

·         In the previous three year review period, I have (co-)authored ten journal articles, two book chapters, and twenty two conference articles.

·         Since promotion to Professor (July 2001), I have (co-)authored two books, 28 journal articles, 7 book chapters, and 60 conference articles.

·         The majority of these publications are in the top venues for my field (i.e., IEEE Transactions, Automatica, Proc. AIAA GNC, Proc. ACC, Proc. CDC, Proc. ICRA). All venues are well-respected and standard for my areas of research. All conference involved at least one round of anonymous reviews of the full paper, followed by revisions, unless the paper is marked as “Non-Refereed” or “Partially-Refereed.”

·         The h-index for my publications is 33 and the i10-index is 72 (computed with google scholar link on my web page). These indices compare favorably with my eighteen years in academia.

 

Funding in the area of control systems research is extremely competitive; nevertheless, I have a well-funded research program. As demonstrated by my funding record, I very much enjoy collaborative, multi-PI, cross-disciplinary research.

 

Teaching

I thoroughly enjoy both undergraduate and graduate teaching and research collaboration. I strive for rigor, very high quality, and extensive student interaction. I promote an interactive class environment by asking students questions during lecture, discussing with them outside of class, and by revising labs each year to be synchronized with differences in the lecture pace and with student interests. As my teaching evaluations show, most students greatly appreciate this effort. According to the UCR BCOE teaching policy, I am teaching in overload (i.e., above the level required). For example, in 11/12, I should be teaching one course – four courses is the standard load, my supervision of eight Ph.D. students counts as one course, and EE chair earns two course relief – yet I agree to teach two courses. Similar analysis applies to each year. In the last three year period, I have supervised ten Ph.D., four M.S, and ten UG’s students. I officially co-supervise one additional Ph.D. student. Unofficially I have been actively collaborating on the research of Ding and Kamal with Prof. Roy-Chowdhury and Huang and Vu with Prof. Barth. My supervision approach is extremely interactive on a daily basis. Some students have won awards.

 

Diversity

While engineering careers offer great merit-based potential, students from different precollege backgrounds have different understandings of these engineering career paths and opportunities. Early in my career at UCR I participated in UC organized programs to enhance undergraduate diversity, such as UC Leads with with Elmer Thomas and June Fuller. Since obtaining more significant research funds, I have continued this practice by hosting teams of undergraduates in my research lab each year. Names of students who fall into one or more under-represented category are marked with an asterisk in the teaching section of my C.V.

 

Service

I am exceptionally active both professionally and within UCR. Professionally, in addition to numerous smaller items, my highest profile activities include: IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) VP Finance, IEEE CSS VP Technical Activities, CSS General Vice Chair for the 50th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), and General Chair for the 51st IEEE CDC. The IEEE CDC is the most prestigious conference in my research area. Finally, in June 2012 I was elected to lead the IEEE CSS in the following sequence of offices: President Elect (2014), President (2014), and Past President (2015) At UCR, my major activities include: two terms as Chair of EE; UCR Committee on Academic Personnel; UCR Planning and Budget; faculty representative to the UCR Budget Advisory Committee and its steering committee; Chair of the UCR Strategic Planning Committee on Resources, Budget Planning, and Infrastructure; member of the UCR Strategic Planning Steering Committee; and, member of the UCR Chancellor’s Budget Advisory Council.
