Guillaume Mercère

Biography

I was born in Cambrai, France, in 1977. I received my M.S. degree in electrical engineering from Caen Engineering School, Caen, France, in 2001, my Ph.D. degree in automatic control from Lille University, Lille, France, in 2004 and the "Habilitation à diriger des Recherches" from Poitiers University, Poitiers, France, in 2012. 

Since September 2005, I have been an Associate Professor at Poitiers University, Poitiers, France. I was the co-chair of the French Technical Committee on System Identification between 2008 and 2014. I was the chair of the IEEE CSS Technical Committee on System Identification and Adaptive Control between 2016 and 2019. I am an IEEE CSS Conference Editorial Board member, i.e., an Associate Editor for ACC and CDC. I have held visiting appointments at the University of Iceland, Nova Southeastern University in Florida (USA) and Politecnico di Milano in Italy. My main research interests indeed include model learning and system identification theory, estimation theory, optimization theory, subspace-based identification for 1D and nD models, gray box, and linear parameter varying system identification with specific attention to state-space models. My current activities focus on heat transfer, flexible and cable-driven manipulators, aeronautics, vehicle tire/road interactions and image processing.
