About

Dr. Zizhong Zheng is a leading researcher in underwater robotics and intelligent control systems, with a primary focus on trajectory tracking and motion control for wheeled mobile robots operating in challenging seabed environments. His most notable contribution is the development of a GPSO-MPC (Genetic Particle Swarm Optimization-Model Predictive Control) method for trajectory tracking on seabed soft slopes, a breakthrough that addresses critical issues of wheel slippage and soil deformation in underwater terrain. This work, published in 2025, has already garnered attention with 1 citation, reflecting its emerging impact on the field of ocean engineering and autonomous underwater vehicles. Dr. Zheng’s research bridges the gap between advanced control theory and practical applications in seabed surveying, environmental monitoring, and underwater infrastructure inspection. His innovative approach to integrating optimization algorithms with predictive control models has opened new avenues for enhancing the stability and precision of wheeled robots in soft, deformable substrates. As a researcher dedicated to advancing intelligent ocean technologies, Dr. Zheng’s work continues to influence the development of more reliable and adaptive autonomous systems for underwater exploration.
