Anqi Li | 李安齐

Hi, I am a junior undergraduate student at Yuanpei College, Peking University, majoring in Artificial Intelligence.
I'm currently visiting at Berkeley AI Research (BAIR), advised by Prof. Masayoshi Tomizuka. Previously, I was an intern at the Embodied AI startup Galbot, where I had the privilege to work with Prof. He Wang. I focus on embodied AI, particularly Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and their applications in robotic navigation.

Research

	UrbanVLA: A Vision-Language-Action Model for Urban Micromobility Anqi Li, Zhiyong Wang, Jiazhao Zhang, Minghan Li, Yunpeng Qi, Zhibo Chen, Zhizheng Zhang^†, He Wang^† arXiv preprint* Paper Project page UrbanVLA is a route-conditioned Vision-Language-Action model for urban micromobility. It aligns high-level navigation routes with visual observations to enable scalable, long-horizon navigation.
	Embodied Navigation Foundation Model Jiazhao Zhang, Anqi Li, Yunpeng Qi, Minghan Li, Jiahang Liu, Shaoan Wang, Haoran Liu, Gengze Zhou, Yuze Wu, Xingxing Li, Yuxin Fan, Wenjun Li, Zhibo Chen, Fei Gao, Qi Wu, Zhizheng Zhang^†, He Wang^† ICLR 2026 Paper Project page NavFoM is a cross-embodiment and cross-task navigation model trained on 8 million samples encompassing quadrupeds, drones, wheeled robots, and vehicles, spanning tasks including vision-and-language navigation, object searching, target tracking, and autonomous driving.
	TrackVLA: Embodied Visual Tracking in the Wild Shaoan Wang, Jiazhao Zhang, Minghan Li, Jiahang Liu, Anqi Li, Kui Wu, Fangwei Zhong, Junzhi Yu, Zhizheng Zhang^†, He Wang^† CoRL 2025 Paper Code Project page TrackVLA is a vision-language-action model capable of simultaneous object recognition and visual tracking, trained on a dataset of 1.7 million samples. It demonstrates robust tracking, long-horizon tracking, and cross-domain generalization across diverse challenging environments.

Miscellaneous

Outside of research, I have several hobbies.

I enjoy playing basketball, and I am a huge fan of the NBA. My favorite player is Luka Dončić.
I love performing on the trombone. I am an active member of the Symphony Orchestra at my high school, Experimental High School attached to Beijing Normal University. Check out our recent performance.
I am a speedcuber. I participated in several speedcubing competitions held by the World Cube Association (WCA). Check out my WCA personal profile.
