Feedback control enables dynamical systems to interact autonomously and safely with the real-world. The classical approach to feedback control system design involves first identifying a model of the system and then solving an optimal control problem to generate a control policy. Read more
The goal of this project is to build a new model of muscle contraction called the Active Spring Muscle Model (ASMM) and to verify the model in human gait mechanics. Read more
Future industrial systems will be significantly different from their present states. The main factor we have to consider is the uncertainties. Read more
When developing new inhaled antibiotics to treat lung infections, they will need to be tested before being given to humans. Current methods to test inhaled antibiotics are based on animals which are both inhumane and lack efficacy. Read more
Summary . Uncover the physical and chemical drivers that are responsible for observed distributions of air pollution over Asia using new geostationary satellite observations and a cutting-edge atmospheric chemistry transport model and its adjoint model. . Read more
Introduction. Survival analysis is a subfield of statistics that deals with predicting the duration of time until a specific event occurs, such as the failure of a machine, occurrence of a disease, or death of a patient. Read more

The project seeks to address radicalisation, an important societal issue which undermines public safety, wellbeing, and the effective functioning of a society. Read more
Summary. In mice and humans loss-of-function of the steroid sulfatase (STS) enzyme results in inattention but enhanced motor response inhibition; we aim to understand the neurobiology underlying this dissociation using a new mouse model. Read more
