Omkar Sudhir Patil

I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Louisiana State University, where I lead the Adaptive Control and Robotics (ARC) Lab. My research integrates control theory, adaptive methods, and deep learning to build autonomous systems with mathematically certifiable stability and safety guarantees.

My work has focused on Lyapunov-based learning and control for uncertain nonlinear systems, including deep neural network adaptation, safe control with barrier methods, and online physics-aware learning. I aim to develop methods that can move reliably from proof to platform, with validation on real robotic systems.
