About

Dr. Sameh Otri is a pioneering researcher in computational intelligence and control systems, best known for his groundbreaking work integrating nature-inspired optimization algorithms with fuzzy logic control. His most cited paper, "Using the Bees Algorithm to tune a fuzzy logic controller for a robot gymnast" (2007, 37 citations), exemplifies his major contribution: developing novel methodologies for tuning complex controllers in challenging, under-actuated robotic systems. In this seminal work, Otri demonstrated how the Bees Algorithm—a swarm-based optimization technique—could effectively calibrate a fuzzy logic controller to stabilize an acrobatic two-link robot (ACROBOT) in an upright position, a problem of significant difficulty in nonlinear control. By first designing a linear quadratic regulator to establish baseline scaling gains, he created a robust framework that bridges classical control theory with modern metaheuristic optimization. This approach has inspired subsequent research in adaptive control, robotics, and intelligent systems. Otri’s work stands out for its practical engineering impact, offering a systematic method for automating controller tuning that reduces manual trial-and-error. His research continues to influence students and engineers working at the intersection of artificial intelligence and real-world control applications.
