About

Abdulrazaq Nafiu Abubakar is a researcher at the forefront of robotics and automation, with a focus on intelligent control systems and human-robot interaction. His work addresses critical challenges in industrial automation and cyber-physical security. His most cited paper, "Automated liquid filling system with a robotic arm conveyor for small scale industries" (2021, 20 citations), demonstrates his commitment to practical, accessible automation solutions for developing economies. Abubakar has also made significant contributions to the security of robotic systems, as evidenced by his 2024 study on "Event-Triggered based Control of Robotic Arm Under Denial of Service" (8 citations), which proposed a novel rate-based event-triggered mechanism to ensure finite-time stability of robotic arms under cyberattacks. His forward-looking research on "Emotional Interaction Between Human and Robot" (2025, 3 citations) introduces a Markov Decision Process model for socially assistive robots, enabling emotionally meaningful interactions to improve user well-being and task compliance. With a growing citation impact of over 30 total citations, Abubakar is establishing himself as a versatile researcher bridging the gap between robust industrial automation and emotionally intelligent robotic systems.
