معرفی
Truong Nghiem is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Central Florida (UCF), part of the College of Engineering and Computer Science. He holds a Ph.D. in Electrical and Systems Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania and previously served as an Assistant and Associate Professor at Northern Arizona University (2018–2024). His research focuses on intelligent cyber-physical systems, digital twins, physics-informed machine learning, and distributed optimization/control, with applications in smart buildings, autonomous vehicles, and robotics. He leads the intelligent Cyber-Physical Systems (iCPS) Lab, advancing foundational research in these areas.
Notable awards include the NSF CAREER Award (2023) for composite physics-informed learning and the NSF ERI Award (2022) for building HVAC system research. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE and a member of the ACM. Recent work emphasizes safe machine learning for control systems, communication-efficient optimization algorithms, and physics-constrained motion prediction for autonomous systems. His publications span journals like IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters and conferences such as the American Control Conference.
Grants and research initiatives include projects on HVAC system modeling, distributed trajectory planning for multi-vehicle systems, and adaptive sampling strategies for mobile sensor networks. Collaborations involve industry and academic partners in energy systems, robotics, and control engineering. The iCPS Lab’s work integrates theory, simulation, and real-world validation to address complex cyber-physical challenges.
