About
Wanmi Chen is a robotics researcher whose work spans mobile robot navigation, multi-robot coordination, and intelligent service robotics. In a foundational 2011 study (9 citations), Chen developed a Hybrid Cascaded Genetic Algorithm for robot path planning, combining grid-based environmental modeling with simulated annealing to overcome evolutionary stagnation—an early contribution to efficient autonomous navigation. That same year, Chen tackled multi-robot coordination in robot soccer by proposing a dynamic role assignment system based on path cost (8 citations), enabling teams to fluidly switch between roles like goalie, defender, and attacker. More recently, Chen has advanced perception and safety in service robotics, including a 2021 study on basketball robot localization using MobileNet-SSD and multi-sensor fusion (3 citations), monocular SLAM via semi-direct methods (2 citations), and a fall recognition algorithm for elderly care robots (2 citations) that addresses the critical need for timely fall detection in home environments. With a career bridging foundational algorithms and applied human-robot interaction, Chen’s work demonstrates a sustained commitment to making robots more autonomous, collaborative, and socially beneficial.
