Dr. Athanasios Kapoutsis

Postdoctoral Research Associate

  • Diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering, Democritus University of Thrace, Xanthi (2012)
  • PhD in Algorithmic Robotics, Democritus University of Thrace, Xanthi (2017)

Athanasios Kapoutsis received the engineer’s diploma degree from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Democritus University of Thrace, Xanthi, Greece, in 2012. He received the Ph.D. diploma from the same institution entitled “Towards a fully autonomous and cooperative deployment of multi-robot teams for exploration and coverage in unknown or partially known environments” in 2017. He is currently a postdoctoral researcher with the Centre for Research and Technology Hellas, Information Technologies Institute, Greece. He has been involved in several EU FP7, H2020 and National funded Research and Development projects during the past years. His research is mainly focused on robotics, reinforcement learning, multi-agent systems, machine intelligence, adaptive control, and pattern recognition.
