معرفی
Elio Tuci is a Professor at the Faculty of Computer Science, University of Namur, Belgium (since 2022). Prior roles include Senior Lecturer at Middlesex University London (2016–2018) and Lecturer at Aberystwyth University (2010–2016). He holds a PhD in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence from the University of Sussex (2004) and a Master in Experimental Psychology from Sapienza University of Rome (1996).
His research lies at the intersection of bio-inspired robotics, computational intelligence, and collective decision-making. He designs control mechanisms for autonomous agents to operate in complex environments, drawing inspiration from biological systems. Key themes include agent-environment interaction, communication in multi-robot systems, and the relationship between morphological structure and behavior.
Recent work involves
- robot swarming models for Caenorhabditis elegans behavior;
- synchronization mechanisms in e-puck2 robots;
- evolutionary dispersal strategies under information costs.
He advises PhD students and collaborates with teams at the Namur Digital Institute (NADI) and Namur Institute for Complex Systems (naXys). Grants and projects focus on autonomous systems, transgenic organisms, and complex network synchronization.
