Role
Dr Pablo Lopez-Custodio is a Lecturer and Module Leader in Department of Computer Science. He is on the Teaching and Research path at NTU.
Career overview
Dr Lopez-Custodio has a PhD in Robotics from King's College London where he worked as a research assistant, as well as MSc degree in Mechanical Engineering and a BSc in Mechatronics Engineering, both from the University of Guanajuato, Mexico.
He worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Lincoln and, more recently, at the University of Nottingham. He had a research stay at the University of Florida and have collaborated with researchers from multiple institutions, including Queen’s University Belfast, Johannes Kepler University, Tianjin University, and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.
Research areas
Dr Lopez-Custodio current research focuses on robot learning, specifically when the data belong to a space that is non-Euclidean where traditional statistical tools, like the multivariate normal distribution, are unavailable. Dr Lopez-Custodio also work on topics related to complex kinematics of robots and mechanisms, e.g. mechanism theory, screw theory, higher-order kinematic analysis, singularity analysis, and stiffness of parallel manipulators.
