Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Dr. Shipeng Li, Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA)
Talk Title: Media Computing Research at MSRA
Abstract: In this talk, I will use examples of research projects at MSRA Media Computing and Internet Media groups to share some of my own thoughts on media computing, ranging from media compression, media processing, media communication and system, and how the multimedia technology would impact computing in a big way, with a focus on how they could transform user interaction, device collaboration and cloud computing to a complete new paradigm. I will also post some research challenges that we are facing in our research. I hope the talk will inspire new collaboration opportunities with professors and students at universities. The talk is complemented with a technical demo in the end.
