Alma Y. Alanís
Alma Yolanda Alanís García (born 1980) is a Mexican electrical engineer and control theorist specializing in intelligent control, and in particular in the use of artificial neural networks for applications including the control of electric motors, robot manipulators, and unmanned aerial vehicles. She is a chair professor and researcher in the Department of Computational Sciences at the University of Guadalajara.[1][2]
Education and career
[edit]Alanís was born in Durango in 1980,[3] and earned an electrical engineering degree from the Durango Institute of Technology in 2002. She did her graduate study in electrical engineering at the Guadalajara unit of CINVESTAV, earning a master's degree in 2004 and completing her doctorate in 2007.[2][4] Her dissertation, Discrete-time Neural Control: Application to Induction Motors, was jointly supervised by Edgar N. Sanchez and Alexander G. Loukianov.[5]
She took her present position at the University of Guadalajara in 2008.[2]
