Biography
Alireza Karimi received his B. Sc. and M. Sc. degrees in Electrical Engineering in 1987 and 1990 from Amir Kabir University (Tehran Polytechnic). After 3 years of industrial experience he joined Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble (INPG) in France and received his DEA and Ph. D. degrees both on Automatic Control in 1994 and 1997, respectively. He was Assistant Professor at Electrical Engineering Department of Sharif University of Technology in Teheran from 1998 to 2000. He is currently a faculty member of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering of EPFL. He was an Associate Editor of European Journal of Control from 2004 to 2013. His research interests include closed-loop identification, data-driven controller tuning approaches and robust control with application on mechatronic systems and electrical grids.
