Curriculum Vitae
Developing cooperation between researchers in the more and more ubiquitous areas of automation and control is crucial to shaping a sustainable future.

Andrea Martin joined the National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) Automation through a joint PhD program between EPF Lausanne and ETH Zurich. His research focuses on stochastic system modeling for data-based control. Andrea received his Bachelor’s Degree (cum laude) in Information Engineering from the University of Padua, Italy, and his Double Master’s Degree in Automation Engineering (cum laude) and in Automatic Control and Robotics from the same University and from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, Spain. During his studies, he worked at the Institute for Robotics and Industrial Informatics in Barcelona. Outside office hours, he enjoys woodworking, hiking and photography.

Stochastic behavioural models for data-driven control

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, John Lygeros, Florian Dörfler

Summary

Recent results on data-based control exploit alternative parametrizations of linear and nonlinear systems, such as those provided by behavioral theory and deep neural networks. In this project we focus on Input/Output Behavioral (IOB) models that have been used for control by assuming noiseless measurement or deterministic bounded disturbances. The goal of the project is to study the relation between IOB-based control methods and the existing approaches for stochastic systems, including system identification and stochastic model predictive control. New controllers will be tested on the energy systems relevant for the NCCR.
