Rodolphe Sepulchre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rodolphe Sepulchre is a professor of control engineering in the Control Group at the University of Cambridge and at KU Leuven, with research interests in nonlinear control and neural behaviours.
Sepulchre achieved a bachelor's degree from Université catholique de Louvain between 1989 and 1990, before remaining at this institution to study a PhD in mathematical engineering between 1990 and 1994.[1] Between 1990 and 1997 he was employed as a researcher, and held a postdoctoral position at the University of California, Santa Barbara from 1994 to 1996. In 1997 he achieved a post as a professor at Université de Liège in the department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.[2]
Published works
He has written two books: Optimisation Algorithms on Matrix Manifolds,[3] published in 2007, and Constructive Nonlinear Control,[4] published in 1996.
His main research interests include nonlinear control; optimisation on manifolds; coordination, synchronization, and consensus on nonlinear spaces; and neural behaviors, and has published over 90 papers in these areas.[5]
In May 2022 he published a paper in Proceedings of the IEEE entitled 'Spiking Control Systems',[6] in which he incorrectly cited the Wikipedia article on the homeostat, claiming
According to Wikipedia [47], the homeostat did not work very reliably.
