Ye Li

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, advised by Prof. Stella X. Yu.

Previously, I received my M.S. in Robotics from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 2025, advised by Prof. Xiaonan (Sean) Huang. In 2024, I visited the BAIR at UC Berkeley, working with Prof. Kurt Keutzer. I received my bachelor’s degree in 2023 from the College of Automotive Engineering at Jilin University.

I am open to discussions and collaborations in robotics and autonomous driving. Feel free to drop me an email if you find our research a potential match.
