I am a grant funded Research Fellow in the School of Computer and Mathematical Sciences. My main areas of research focus are:
1) Optimal and robust guidance laws for unmanned aerial vehicles under uncertainty
Develops optimal and robust guidance laws for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operating under uncertainty to enhance reliability in contested environments.
2) Distributed multi-agent asynchronous weapon target assignment algorithms
Designs distributed, multi-agent asynchronous algorithms for weapon–target assignment to enable resilient and scalable decision-making in dynamic combat scenarios.
