Humberto Gonzalez
I'm a graduate student in Electrical Engineering at UC Berkeley, where I've studied since 2006 with Professor Shankar Sastry as my advisor. I received my B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Universidad de Chile in December, 2005.
Research
My interests are mostly in the areas of dynamical systems and control theory. I have worked in passivity-based control in the past and I'm currently working with Professor Elijah Polak in optimization theory and receding-horizon control.
I also enjoy applying control theory to real life applications, particularly to robotic applications and autonomous vehicles, including the development of embedded systems and programming real-time software.
I'm affiliated with the Berkely Aerobot Team (BEAR) and the Center for Hybrid and Embedded Software Systems (CHESS).
