Research Interest

Convex and non-convex optimization: both from a theoretical perspective and algorithmic implementation. Recent works include prediction-correction algorithms to track the solution trajectory of time-varying convex programs. Older works include networked SDP convex relaxations of certain classes of non-convex programs. Distributed optimization, especially in connection with robotic and wireless sensor networks. Control theory in the context of distributed control design, model predictive control, embedded control systems. Signal processing: distributed estimation, sparse reconstructions, compressive sensing, wireless sensor network localization, sensor selection, graph signal processing. Parallel computing in the context of nonlinear estimation and specifically particle filtering.
