Percepción y Control Inteligente
Our group is called ‘Percepción y Control Inteligente’ (in Spanish) and the acronym is PCI. It belongs to ‘Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Sede Manizales’. The name of the group in English should be ‘Perception and Intelligent Control’. We are also very proud to belong to an Excellence Center in Colombia called ‘CeiBA Complexity’.
We work on very different areas such us
• Artificial Vision
• Control and Automatics
• Seismology
• Industrial Innovations
but the most related ones to the GSD Network are the following:
• Nonlinear Dynamics, Bifurcations and Chaos
• Control Systems
• Nonsmooth Systems
• Complex Networks
with applications to
• Sustainability Development
• Landslides
• Medical Stress
• Biotechnology and Agroindustry
We are a very interdisciplinary group. The members are:
