Marios Polycarpou
Biography
For 30 years, Marios Polycarpou’s research on intelligent monitoring and control has had a long-lasting impact in numerous application domains, including water-distribution networks, robotic systems, smart buildings, automation in healthcare devices, smart electric grids, and transportation. His work in neural net-works-based adaptive-control methods has transformed the field and opened new ways for designing neural control schemes with learning capabilities for uncertain dynamical systems. He also initiated an entirely new approach to using a learning-systems methodology in fault diagnosis. First developed in 1994, his approach is now important to the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems, where faults can heavily—and subtly—affect application performance.
An IEEE Fellow, Polycarpou is a professor of electrical and computer engineering and director of the KIOS Center of Excellence, at the University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus.
