Avinash Kr. Dubey

I am an experienced researcher at IIT Bombay in the Control & Computing group of the Electrical Department. I am pursuing my PhD under Prof. Dwaipayan Mukherjee on Networked Dynamical Systems. I am also an educator with deep expertise in decentralized control of networked multi-agent systems, focusing on consensus, containment, formation, trajectory planning, and embedded systems. I have authored over 12 publications and completed more than 10 robotics projects, conducting aerial and terrestrial robotic experiments.

With growing proficiency in machine learning and predictive analytics, and over 10 years of teaching in control systems and embedded programming, I have hands-on experience implementing advanced control algorithms across autonomous systems, multi-vehicle coordination, and Internet of Things-enabled robotics. I have worked as an Assistant Project Manager on the e-Yantra Project, a project in the Computer Science department at IIT Bombay supported by the Ministry of Education (formerly MHRD) through the National Mission on Education through ICT (NMEICT) to spread Embedded Systems and Robotics education in colleges across India. I have worked on various projects such as designing a Self-Balancing Robot using LQR control strategy and PID, and comparing them. I have also worked on formation control problems using Spark V Robot and Firebird Robot.
