Hi, my name is Sihui Li. I’m a Ph.D. candidate in computer science at Colorado School of Mines. I work with Dr. Dantam in the DyALab. I’m graduating next Spring, and am actively looking for academic jobs now, faculty positions and postdocs. I would greatly appreciate it if you want to share any academic/research-focused job information with me.

My current research focuses on robot motion planning and task planning. I believe that one key to any robotics application is the algorithm running behind and driving all the hardware. Because of this, one of my goals is to develop robust, generally applicable, and theoretically complete algorithms for robots. In one area of my research, I look at motion planning infeasibility proofs that demonstrate the non-existence of configuration space paths. This also leads to a narrow passage motion planning algorithm. Applying these algorithms in context-sensitive scenarios shows the advantages on HRI robotic systems.
I joined the RSS pioneer workshop 2023 in Daegu, Republic of Korea on July 9th.
