Self-Organizing Mobility Lab

The Self-Organizing Mobility Laboratory (SOMLab) was established in January 2025 by Prof. Wenwu Yu, Prof. Simone Baldi, and Prof. Di Liu at Southeast University. The lab is committed to advancing foundational and applied research in self-organizing coordination, adaptive and learning-based control, embodied intelligence, interpretable AI and foundation models, and intelligent decision-making theory. Its work spans intelligent and connected vehicles, low-altitude economic applications and cross-domain unmanned systems, intelligent transportation networks, smart buildings, and intelligent energy infrastructures, supporting breakthroughs in cooperative autonomy, predictive planning, and safety-critical control across real-world mobility and cyber–physical systems.

SOMLab aims to establish a future-oriented paradigm for self-organizing, collaborative, and self-evolving intelligence. Leveraging embodied intelligence for cross-modal perception, comprehension, and action planning, the lab integrates distributed adaptive cooperative control, emergence-driven organizational mechanisms, and safety-critical decision and control technologies. Its overarching ambition is to enable efficient coordination, resilient autonomy, and energy-optimized operation across ground, aerial, and interconnected urban infrastructures, fostering the deep convergence of intelligent mobility, low-altitude ecosystems, and smart energy networks and catalyzing the emergence of a new generation of integrated intelligent environments.
