Haochong Chen works on autonomous vehicle control and path planning, focusing on making self-driving systems safe around pedestrians, bicyclists, and other vulnerable road users. Their work combines mathematical safety guarantees (control barrier functions and Lyapunov-based methods) with modern path-planning algorithms and reinforcement learning to help vehicles navigate, park, and avoid collisions, including scenarios involving trailers.
