About

Shiqi Zheng is a leading researcher in advanced control systems for mobile robotics, with a primary focus on robust and fractional-order control for four-wheeled steerable and omnidirectional mobile robots operating under challenging conditions. Zheng’s major contributions include pioneering coupled and decoupled fractional-order sliding mode control strategies that effectively address lateral instability, lumped disturbances, and interconnected state challenges on harsh terrains such as uneven or oiled surfaces. Their work on internal coupled sliding mode control (ICSMC) and mode-dependent switched control has significantly advanced robust tracking and yaw moment stabilization, with top-cited papers accumulating over 129 and 35 citations respectively. Beyond single-robot control, Zheng has made notable contributions to multi-agent consensus for random mechanical systems, introducing event-triggered adaptive distributed observers, and to deep reinforcement learning-based mapless navigation that mitigates local optima in unknown environments. Their research also extends to anti-disturbance direct yaw moment control and adaptive abrupt disturbance rejection, demonstrating sustained impact with over 300 total citations. Zheng’s work is essential reading for researchers and students in robotics, nonlinear control, and autonomous systems.
