Research summary
AI-generated

This publication record appears to combine work from multiple distinct research areas—autonomous systems and control (trajectory planning, spacecraft swarms, battery charging control), optics and photonics (structured light beams, diffractive neural networks, free-space optical communication), and particle physics (CKM angle measurement)—which likely reflects merged records for different researchers sharing the same name rather than a single coherent research program. Prospective students should verify which specific subfield and papers belong to the PI they are interested in before drawing conclusions about research focus.

Publication output was low and sporadic before 2020, then grew substantially from 2020 through 2024, followed by continued high output in 2025.
