Research summary
AI-generated

Takashi Tanaka works on control theory and control engineering, with a focus on optimal control under uncertainty, encrypted and privacy-preserving control systems, and stochastic and game-theoretic approaches to control. Recent work applies techniques such as path integral control, reinforcement learning, and homomorphic encryption to problems in networked control systems, robotics, and cyber-physical system security. This research area is relevant to students interested in the mathematical foundations of control systems as well as their secure and distributed implementation.
