Professor Li's main research focus is in bioinformatics algorithms and software. His main focus recently is protein structure prediction systems and homology search algorithms.
On a different front, Professor Li is also working on fundamental research in Kolmogorov complexity, information distance and their applications in average case analysis of algorithms and data mining.
