Radu Grosu

Radu Grosu is a Professor at Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien), leading the Forschungsbereich Cyber-Physical Systems. His research focuses on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), Machine Learning, and autonomous robotics, with notable contributions to neural network architectures like Liquid Time-Constant Networks (LTC) and their applications in robotics and medical imaging. He is affiliated with the Network Lab and has supervised numerous PhD and Master's students, including Sebastian Michael Bittner, Daniel Scheuchenstuhl, and Sophie Neubauer. His work spans topics such as reinforcement learning, autonomous driving, and IoT ecosystems. Recent projects include developing robust AI systems for healthcare and robotics, such as tumor delineation using PET imaging and neuromorphic IoT architectures for smart villages. Grosu has published extensively on CPS, with over 146 contributions across peer-reviewed journals and conferences. His research emphasizes bridging theory and practice, addressing challenges in safety, scalability, and real-time control in autonomous systems.

Key research interests include robotic perception, neural network robustness, and CPS/IoT integration. He has pioneered methods like DeepSTL for translating temporal logic requirements into neural network training objectives and developed frameworks like NimbleAI for neuromorphic sensing-processing systems. His team also explores distributed control algorithms for multi-agent systems, such as flocking drones and formation control using relative distance measurements. Recent work examines the generalization properties of deep filters in CNNs and quantum-classical reinforcement learning models for game AI.

Grosu has advised over 20 students on topics ranging from deep learning in wafer defect analysis to bio-inspired neural circuits for auditable autonomy. His lab collaborates on interdisciplinary projects, such as applying AI to battery health estimation and prostate cancer diagnostics. He actively contributes to academic communities, editing special issues on AI in healthcare and CPS resilience, and has organized summer schools on CPS and IoT systems.
