Suat Gumussoy


 
Bio 

Dr. Gumussoy received his B.S. degrees in Electrical & Electronics Engineering and Mathematics from Middle East Technical University at Turkey in 1999 and M.S., Ph.D. degrees in Electrical and Computer Engineering from The Ohio State University at USA in 2001 and 2004. His graduate study is focused on robust control design and time-delay systems. He worked as a system engineer in electronic self-protection system design for F-16 aircrafts at Mikes Inc., New York (2005-2007) and was a visiting researcher at New York University, Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. He was a postdoctoral researcher in Computer Science Department at University of Leuven, Belgium (2008-2011). He is currently principal control system engineer in Controls & Identification Team at MathWorks. Dr. Gumussoy's general research interests are learning, control, optimization and scientific computing with particular focus on reinforcement learning, optimal-adaptive control, frequency domain system identification, time-delay systems and their numerical implementations. 
He serves as an Associate Editor in IEEE Conference Editorial Board and IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology.
