I am a Senior Research Scientist at the KIOS Research and Innovation Centre of Excellence, University of Cyprus. I have obtained my DPhil (PhD) degree in Computer Science from the University of Oxford, where I was a member of Kellogg College. Prior to that, I completed my graduate studies at Yale University, where I earned my MSc degree in Electrical Engineering. I received my BSc degree in Electronic and Computer Engineering from the Technical University of Crete.

My research endeavors are centered around the development of innovative estimation, decision, and control techniques that will pave the way for the creation of intelligent autonomous systems. Recently, my research is focused on building the necessary mathematical frameworks for the design of intelligent multi-agent UAV systems that can be utilized in disaster response missions.

Fascinated about: Multi-target Tracking, State Estimation, Trajectory Planning, Mathematical Programming and Optimization, Optimal and Model Predictive Control, and Artificial Intelligence.
