Student Participation Support at ACM Multimedia 2015

所提供的支持使大约15名在美国就读的研究生/本科生能够参加将于2015年10月26日至30日在澳大利亚布里斯班举行的多媒体领域的首次会议ACM Multimedia 2015（http：//www.acmmm.org/2015/）。这是非常有价值的学生从事由本次会议提供的独特的研究和教育计划。这是世界范围内首屈一指的会议，也是展示多媒体领域科学成就和创新工业产品的重要世界活动，包括最新的技术论文，技术演示，大挑战比赛，开源软件比赛，博士研讨会，以及互动艺术节目，激励艺术家和计算机科学家共同发现艺术传播的前沿。参加这样的活动可以让学生学习/体验创新研究，发展专业网络，并与参与实际应用和技术转让的行业和学术界领导人互动。将向广大社区和学生宣布提供支持，并特别鼓励代表性不足的群体申请。ACM Multimedia 2015要求提供完整的论文，提出新的理论和算法解决方案，解决多媒体和相关应用领域的问题。会议还呼吁提出新颖的，发人深省的想法和实现这些想法的有希望的（初步）结果的简短论文。积极参与ACM Multimedia 2015将有助于学生了解多媒体领域的最新技术。博士研讨会将提供一个论坛，提出博士学位。学生正在进行的工作，并从既定的研究人员收到反馈。 这将促进建立一个支持性的全球社区，并为博士生建立专业网络。此外，勇敢新想法（BNI）计划侧重于多媒体计算，通信和应用的传统理论和实践中的高度创新的想法和/或范式转变，并可能涉及跨学科的努力。本课程对正在探索新研究方向的学生或初级研究人员特别有用。多媒体大挑战提出了一系列来自行业领导者的问题和议题，旨在让多媒体研究界参与解决有关多媒体行业3-5年愿景的相关，有趣和具有挑战性的问题。 ACM多媒体开源软件竞赛旨在促进免费资源的贡献，通过提供一套用于构建和改进多媒体研究原型的通用工具来推动该领域的发展。最后，大型技术演示会议旨在作为演示者的研究思想和科学或工程贡献的真实的、实用的和互动的证明。该课程允许学生展示自己的新颖研究原型，并查看和互动的第一手资料，在多媒体领域的创新解决方案和想法的现场证据。

The provided support enables about 15 graduate/undergraduate students enrolled in the U.S. institutions to participate in the premiere conference in the multimedia area, ACM Multimedia 2015, to be held 26 - 30 October 2015, Brisbane, Australia (http://www.acmmm.org/2015/). It is very valuable for students to engage in the unique research and education programs provided by this conference. This is the worldwide premier conference and a key world event to display scientific achievements and innovative industrial products in the multimedia field, covering latest technical papers, technical demos, grand challenge competition, open source software competition, doctoral symposium, and an interactive art program stimulating artists and computer scientists to meet and discover together the frontiers of artistic communication. Participation in such event allows students to learn/experience innovative research, develop professional networks, and interact with industry and academia leaders involved in practical applications and technology transfer. The availability of support will be announced to the broad community and students, and underrepresented groups will be particularly encouraged to apply. ACM Multimedia 2015 calls for full papers presenting novel theoretical and algorithmic solutions addressing problems across the domain of multimedia and related applications. The conference also calls for short papers presenting novel, thought-provoking ideas and promising (preliminary) results in realizing these ideas. The active participation in ACM Multimedia 2015 will be valuable for students to understand the state-of-the-art techniques in multimedia area. The Doctoral Symposium will provide a forum to present Ph.D. students' ongoing work and receive feedback from established researchers. This will foster establishment of a supportive worldwide community, and build professional networks for PhD students. In addition, the Brave New Idea (BNI) Program focuses on highly innovative ideas and/or paradigm shifts in conventional theory and practice of multimedia computing, communications and applications, and may involve cross-disciplinary efforts. This session is especially useful for students or junior researchers who are exploring new research direction. Multimedia Grand Challenges presents a set of problems and issues from industry leaders, geared to engage the Multimedia research community in solving relevant, interesting and challenging questions about the industry's 3-5 year vision for multimedia. The ACM Multimedia Open-Source Software Competition is designed to promote the contribution of freely available resources, which advance the field by providing a common set of tools for building and improving multimedia research prototypes. Finally, the large Technical Demonstration session is intended as real, practical, and interactive proof of the presenters' research ideas and scientific or engineering contributions. This session allows students to demonstrate their own novel research prototypes, and also to view and interact first hand with live evidence of innovative solutions and ideas in the field of multimedia.
