About
Hamed Fathalizadeh Parapari is a researcher specializing in distributed robotics and multi-agent systems, with a primary focus on coverage control and autonomous navigation in complex environments. His work addresses the fundamental challenge of enabling teams of mobile robots to cooperatively explore and cover unknown domains, even when those domains contain obstacles that are both fixed and unknown. In his most cited paper (2016, 20 citations), Parapari introduced a distributed cooperative algorithm for mobile robots equipped with limited-range sector sensors, a realistic sensor model whose performance depends on both distance and angular constraints. This work significantly advanced the practical applicability of coverage control by accounting for sensor limitations that are common in real-world hardware. His earlier contribution (2014, 9 citations) tackled the even more challenging problem of coverage in non-convex environments with unknown non-convex obstacles, where robots must simultaneously avoid collisions while maximizing area coverage from random starting positions. Parapari’s research bridges the gap between theoretical coverage algorithms and real-world robotic deployment, making his contributions valuable for applications in search-and-rescue, environmental monitoring, and autonomous exploration.
