  • Biography

    Before coming to MERL in 2010, Mouhacine worked at universities in Reims University, France and Strathclyde University, Scotland before spending 5 years as a Research Scientist with the Temasek Laboratories at the National University of Singapore. His research interests include modeling and control of flexible systems, nonlinear robust and fault tolerant control, multi-agent control with applications to smart-grid and robotics, estimation and control of partial differential equations with applications to thermo-fluid models, learning-based adaptive control for nonlinear systems, and control-theory based optimization algorithms with application to machine learning. Mouhacine has published more than 50 peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers, and has more than 20 patents in the field of mechatronics systems control. He is a senior member of the IEEE, Associate Editor of the Control System Society Conference Editorial Board, Associate Editor of the Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications, Associate Editor of the Journal of Advanced Control for Applications, Associate Editor of the IEEE Control Systems Letters, and Senior Editor of the International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing.
