About

Xuebo Yang is a leading researcher in advanced robotics control, specializing in nonlinear disturbance rejection and adaptive motion control for mobile and aerial robotic systems. His work centers on developing robust control strategies that enable robots to operate reliably in real-world environments plagued by friction, external disturbances, and model uncertainties. Yang’s most influential contribution is his 2019 paper on extended state observer (ESO)-based sliding mode control for omnidirectional mobile robots, which has garnered 231 citations for its practical, implementation-friendly approach to friction compensation. This work has become a key reference in the field of wheeled robot control. He has further advanced the field by pioneering nonlinear disturbance observer-based adaptive backstepping control for aerial parallel manipulators, addressing the complex trajectory tracking challenges of Stewart platform-based drones. Yang’s research bridges the gap between theoretical control design and real-world robotic applications, offering elegant solutions that are both mathematically rigorous and deployable. His work is essential reading for students and engineers tackling motion control problems in mobile robotics, aerial manipulation, and mechatronic systems.
