Biography

Roland Tóth is a Full Professor at the Control Systems Group in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). His research focuses on the identification and control of physical and chemical systems based on Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) models. These models are seen as an intermediate step towards understanding the framework of Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) systems and their applications in the vast universe of nonlinear time-varying phenomena in practice. Tóth aims to bring LPV systems into practical use through various research projects that include both theoretical investigations and hardcore issues in LPV system theory, as well as practical identification and control for industrial applications. He is also a Senior Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology. His work includes the development of logic engines that autonomously interact with applications to improve control actions and achieve desired behaviors, incorporating data-driven learning and model-based control engineering.
