Steacie Fellowship RTI - An Infrastructure for Quality-of-Visual-Experience Research

人类正在进入一个经验的时代。对开发能够丰富和增强人类消费数字媒体数据的体验的新技术的需求呈指数级增长。在所有的数字媒体形式中，数字图像和视频在过去几年中已经成为最占主导地位的。因此，评估和改善视觉体验质量（QoVE）正成为迫切需要技术解决方案的最关键问题之一。滑铁卢大学王周教授领导的图像与视觉计算实验室是感知图像/视频质量评估和处理领域的世界领导者，具有强大的业绩记录和广泛的影响力，并将QoVE作为其未来5-10年的主要研究方向。

Human kind is entering an era of experience. There has been an exponentially increasing demand on developing novel technologies that can enrich and enhance human experiences in consuming digital media data. Among all digital media forms, digital image and video have become the most dominant in the past few years. As a result, assessing and improving quality-of-visual experience (QoVE) is becoming one of the most critical issues that urgently requires technical solutions. The Image and Vision Computing Laboratory led by Prof. Zhou Wang at University of Waterloo is a world leader with strong track record and broad impact in the field of perceptual image/video quality assessment and processing, and is targeting at QoVE as its major research direction in the next 5-10 years.
