About Me

Here is Yihan Li (YianLee, 李艺涵).

I am a senior student majoring in Automation Engineering at Xi’an Jiaotong University, Qian Xuesen Honor College. I’m also a visiting student in UC Berkeley during 2023 Fall. I’m now working with Berkeley Hybrid Robotics Group , advised by Prof. Koushil Sreenath. Here is my CV.


Research Interests

  • Robotics
  • Motion Planning
  • Optimization
  • Control Theory

I’m enthusiastic about robotics, and especially interested in motion planning, optimization and control theory. My current research lies on model-based trajectory generation and control in automatic drive, including topics like learning based MPC(LMPC), iLQR in iterative manner(i2LQR) and iterative MPPI. I also have experience in real-world development and debugging of intelligent car on real test ground. I’m willing to get exposed to various topics in the field of robotics motion planning, including various methodologies like model-based, RL-based methods or their combination and their application on various types of robots like legged and aerial robots.

[Highlight] I am looking for PhD to start in 2024 Fall. Contact me if you are interested in my work!
