IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo (ICME) 2016: Doctoral Symposium

本基金支持美国博士生参加2016年在西雅图举行的IEEE ICME（国际多媒体与博览会）学生项目。这项支持使更多的研究生能够直接与来自不同研究机构的高级研究人员以及他们的同龄人互动。这将为研究生在其发展的关键阶段提供重要的帮助，并推动多媒体技术的发展。ICME 2016学生计划为博士学位的学生提供了一个机会，他们的论文是关于多媒体相关主题的，可以展示他们的研究，并从邀请的教师和行业研究人员委员会以及在相关领域工作的其他学生那里获得反馈。它的目的是为学生提供宝贵的外部视角，讨论和调整他们的职业目标，并确定发展需求。自2000年以来，ICME一直是由电气和电子工程师协会（IEEE）主办的旗舰多媒体会议，作为一个论坛，从电路和系统，通信，计算机和信号处理四个IEEE学会的研究和发展角度促进多媒体技术，系统和应用的最新进展的交流。会议的主题涵盖跨学科领域，包括内容分析、活动和事件理解、搜索和检索、基于位置的媒体、社交、用户生成和基于云的媒体、沉浸式和VR/AR（虚拟现实/增强现实）、安全和取证、多模态交互、网络和通信、信号处理以及系统和应用。ICME每年有大约700份提交和500名参与者，有很高的选择性接受率：口头报告15%，其次是海报15%。关于ICME 2016学生计划的更多信息可以在ICME 2016网站（http://www.icme2016.org）上找到。

This grant supports U.S. Ph.D. students to participate in the Student Program in IEEE ICME (International Conference on Multimedia and Expo) 2016 in Seattle. The support enables more graduate students to directly interact with senior researchers as well as their peers from diverse research institutions. This will provide important help to the graduate students at a critical stage of their development and advance the state of the art in multimedia technologies. The ICME 2016 Student Program provides an opportunity for Ph.D. students whose dissertations are on topics related to multimedia, to present their research and receive feedback from an invited committee of faculty and industry researchers and from other students working in the related area. It is aimed to provide students valuable exposure to outside perspectives on their work, a setting to discuss and fine-tune their career objectives, and to identify development needs.Since 2000, ICME has been the flagship multimedia conference sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), serving as a forum to promote the exchange of the latest advances in multimedia technologies, systems, and applications from both the research and the development perspectives of four IEEE societies: Circuits and Systems, Communications, Computer, and Signal Processing. The topics of the conference span interdisciplinary areas including content analysis, activity and event understanding, search and retrieval, location-based media, social, user-generated and cloud-based media, immersion and VR/AR (Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality), security and forensics, multimodal interaction, networking and communication, signal processing, and systems and applications. With about 700 submissions and 500 participants each year, ICME has a highly selective acceptance rate: 15% for oral presentations and the next 15% for posters. Further information on the ICME 2016 Student Program can be found on the ICME 2016 web site (http://www.icme2016.org).
