Dr. Luca Furieri at EPFL’s School of Mechanical Engineering has been awarded an Ambizione grant for research at the intersection of machine learning and control theory. Congratulations on this achievement from all members of DECODE!
The Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) aims its Ambizione grants to “young researchers who wish to conduct, manage and lead an independent project at a Swiss higher education institution.” The competitive grants cover salaries and funding necessary for the awarded research project for four years.
This year, Dr Luca Furieri at EPFL’s School of Mechanical Engineering has been awarded an Ambizione grant in the disciplines of machine learning and control theory. The grant will enable Dr Furieri to pursue independent research on exploiting machine learning algorithms in safety-critical engineering infrastructures, including automated transportation systems and the continent-wide electricity grid. The awarded project is titled: “Reliable Machine Learning for Networked Control.”
