Biography
My research interests include distributed control and signal processing with applications to cyber-physical systems, IoT, ground and aerial robotics, and sensor networks. I spent Spring 2015 in the ACCESS Linnaeus Centre at KTH Sweden as a Guest Professor on sabbatical leave from Tufts, where I taught a course on Information processing on Graphs. I am the director of Signal Processing and RoboTic Networks (SPARTN) laboratory at Tufts. I received the NSF CAREER award in Jan. 2014. I am a Senior Member of IEEE and on the editorial board of IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid. Demos from our lab: Formation flying, Target tracking, Indoor navigation.
