Lucas Schulze

Lucas Schulze joined the Intelligent Autonomous System lab on February, 1st, 2024 as a PhD student. He studied Electrical Engineering at the Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina, where he received his Bsc and Msc. His Bachelor's and Master's theses were focused on predictive control applied to robotic systems.

Before his Ph.D., he worked as a Research Fellow with hydraulic quadruped robots at the Dynamic Legged Systems (DLS) lab of the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia.

He is interested in approaches combining optimal control and machine learning.
