Welcome TO Human LAB

Welcome to the HUMAN Lab – Human-like Understanding and Modeling in Autonomous Navigation! We are thrilled that you have clicked on our website and shown interest in our cutting-edge research in the field of autonomous driving and intelligent transportation.

Led by Zhenning Li, our lab is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of autonomous navigation by emphasizing human-like understanding and modeling. We firmly believe that for autonomous vehicles to seamlessly integrate into our daily lives, they must not only possess exceptional technical capabilities but also exhibit a profound understanding of human behavior and the complex dynamics of real-world environments.

Thank you for visiting the HUMAN Lab, where human-like understanding and modeling drive the future of autonomous navigation!
