About

Dr. Wan-Ning Li is a leading researcher in robotics and intelligent control systems, with a primary focus on motion planning and optimization for autonomous mobile robots. Her most influential work, "A PSO method for optimal design of PID controller in motion planning of a mobile robot" (2013, 11 citations), introduces a novel application of particle swarm optimization (PSO) to design optimal PID controllers. This method enables two-wheeled mobile robots to navigate from an initial to a desired configuration in unknown, obstacle-filled environments, significantly advancing autonomous navigation capabilities. By integrating swarm intelligence with classical control theory, Dr. Li has provided an efficient and robust solution for real-time path planning and obstacle avoidance. Her contributions are particularly valuable for developing more adaptive and intelligent robotic systems, with implications for industrial automation, service robotics, and autonomous vehicles. Dr. Li’s work continues to inspire researchers in optimization-based control design, and her innovative approach to combining PSO with PID control remains a foundational reference in the field of mobile robotics.
