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

这项资助支持美国博士生参加2016年在西雅图举行的IEEE ICME(多媒体和博览会国际会议)的学生项目。这一支持使更多的研究生能够直接与资深研究人员以及来自不同研究机构的同行互动。这将为处于发展关键阶段的研究生提供重要的帮助，并促进多媒体技术的发展。ICME 2016学生计划为博士学生提供了一个机会，他们的论文主题是与多媒体相关的，他们可以展示自己的研究成果，并从一个由教师和行业研究人员组成的特邀委员会以及在相关领域工作的其他学生那里获得反馈。自2000年以来，ICME一直是由电气和电子工程师协会(IEEE)赞助的旗舰多媒体会议，作为一个论坛，促进从电路和系统、通信、计算机和信号处理四个IEEE学会的研究和发展角度交流多媒体技术、系统和应用的最新进展。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、沉浸和VR/AR(虚拟现实/增强现实)、安全和取证、多模式交互、网络和通信、信号处理以及系统和应用。ICME每年约有700份意见书和500名参与者，具有高度选择性的接受率：口头陈述和海报的接受率分别为15%和15%。有关ICME2016学生计划的更多信息，请访问ICME2016网站(http://www.icme2016.org).

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).
