About Me

I am a Ph.D. candidate at the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Purdue University, advised by Dr. Inseok Hwang. I am interested in safety-critical control for autonomous systems with high-assured safety. For my Ph.D. research, I have been developing vehicle-level cyber threat management algorithms, including attack mitigation and risk assessment, for aerial system applications. My technical skills and research interest mainly include:

  • Model-Based Reachability Computation and Analysis
  • State Feedback Control and Estimation (EKF, Luenberger Observer)
  • Robust & Optimal Control (H Infinity Control, MPC)
  • Safety Critical Control (Control Barrier Function)
  • Distributed Optimization and Control
  • Data-Driven System Identification and Control using Koopman Operator

For a more comprehensive overview of my work, please refer to my CV (updated in March 2026).

Thank you for visiting!
