Ask not what AI can do for control, ask what control can do for AI

Abstract

AI has drastically changed the landscape of several engineering disciplines, such as computer vision and natural language processing, and is now an integral part of several commercial products. In this talk I will argue, through several vignettes, that ideas and techniques from control can help answer fundamental questions about the power, limitations, and societal impact of AI.

About the speaker

Paulo Tabuada was born in Lisbon, Portugal, one year after the Carnation Revolution. He received his Licenciatura degree in Aerospace Engineering from Instituto Superior Tecnico, Lisbon, Portugal in 1998 and his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2002 from the Institute for Systems and Robotics, a private research institute associated with Instituto Superior Tecnico. Between January 2002 and July 2003 he was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania. After spending three years at the University of Notre Dame, as an Assistant Professor, he joined the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he currently is the Vijay K. Dhir Professor of Engineering.

Paulo Tabuada's contributions to control and cyber-physical systems have been recognized by multiple awards including the NSF CAREER award in 2005, the Donald P. Eckman award in 2009, the George S. Axelby award in 2011, the Antonio Ruberti Prize in 2015, the grade of fellow awarded by IEEE in 2017 and by IFAC in 2019. He has been program chair and general chair for several conferences in the areas of control and of cyber-physical systems such as NecSys, HSCC, ICCPS, and CDC (in 2027). He currently serves on the HSCC steering committee and served on the editorial board of the IEEE Embedded Systems Letters and the IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control.
