Vasileios Tzoumas
Assistant Professor of Aerospace Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Scalable, reliable algorithms for autonomous systems that perceive, navigate, and collaborate in resource-constrained, contested environments.
Research Focus
We research resource-aware, near-optimal algorithms for perception, control, and multi-agent coordination — and morphable aerial vehicles that grant superior control authority and situational awareness.
The work sits at the intersection of control, robotics, combinatorial optimization, and online learning, targeting systems in defense, disaster response, and smart cities. Previously: research scientist at MIT (AeroAstro & LIDS), Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania (ESE).

As you set out for Ithaca
hope your road is a long one,
full of adventures, full of learning.
Ithaca gave you the marvelous journey.
Without her you wouldn't have set out.
Wise as you will have become, so full of experience,
you'll have understood by then what these Ithacas mean.
