Website: SOMLab Workshop

Workshop Overview

This international workshop brings together distinguished scholars, collaborators, and emerging researchers from around the world to exchange scientific ideas, discuss recent advances in systems and control, and explore new research frontiers.

Building on the foundations of nonlinear control theory, the workshop will highlight emerging connections among nonlinear control, learning-based methods, artificial intelligence, and intelligent and autonomous systems. Particular emphasis will be placed on integrating rigorous control-theoretic principles with distributed intelligence, safety-critical control, and Physical AI.

Through invited talks and scientific discussions, the workshop aims to stimulate innovative research, foster international collaboration, and inspire the next generation of researchers to address fundamental challenges at the intersection of dynamics, control, learning, and intelligence.

The workshop will provide a platform for advancing scientific understanding, strengthening academic partnerships, and shaping future directions in systems and control.
