Research directions

We are a research group in the College of Control Science and Engineering at Zhejiang University, led by Prof. Liang Li. Our work centers on mobile robotics, autonomous driving, and autonomous unmanned systems. We develop robust perception, localization, and state-estimation methods that let vehicles and robots understand and navigate the world reliably, even in GPS-denied, dynamic, and large-scale environments.

We publish at leading venues such as IEEE Transactions on Robotics, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles, and NeurIPS, and we care about methods that are both theoretically grounded and deployable on real platforms.
