Pelin Sekercioglu

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Division of Decision and Control Systems at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, working with Prof. Dimos Dimarogonas and Ass. Prof. Angela Fontan.

I obtained my Ph.D. in Systems and Control Sciences in November 2024 at the Paris-Saclay University, France. My thesis is entitled “Control of Constrained Multi-Agent Systems with Cooperative and Antagonistic Interactions” and my work was carried out at ONERA - The French Aerospace Lab and L2S - Laboratory of signals and systems, under the supervision of Dr. Antonio Loria (CNRS), Dr. Ioannis Sarras (ONERA, DTIS) and Dr. Julien Marzat (ONERA, DTIS). I received my bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2019 and my master's degree in Advanced Systems and Robotics in 2021, both from the Faculty of Science and Engineering, Sorbonne University, Paris, France. In 2023, I was a visiting researcher at the Engineering and Technology Institute Groningen, University of Groningen, collaborating with Prof. Bayu Jayawardhana (ENTEG, DTPA) on a barrier-Lyapunov function-based robust formation control design for a constrained robot manipulator network.

My research interests include multi-agent systems, signed graph theory, and nonlinear control for autonomous robots and aerospace systems.
