Decentralized stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a driving engine for decentralized federated learning (DFL). The performance of decentralized SGD is jointly influenced by inter-node communications and local updates.

Human centric visual analysis tasks are essential to computer vision since humans are the key element for cameras to analyze. In this talk, I will mainly focus on 4 visual analysis tasks on human hand, gesture, pose, and action respectively.

The IEEE Transactions on Multimedia is now accepting nominations for the 2023 Multimedia Prize Paper Award.  Nominations are due no later than 31 March 2023.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have achieved impressive results in various graph learning tasks and they have found their way into many application domains. Despite their proliferation, our understanding of their robustness properties is still very limited. 

Deep learning-based methods have achieved remarkable success in image restoration and enhancement, but are they still competitive when there is a lack of paired training data? As one such example, this work explores the low-light image enhancement problem, where in practice it is extremely challenging to simultaneously take a low-light and a normal-light photo of the same visual scene. 

Recent advances in multimodal processing have led to promising solutions for speech-processing tasks. One example is automatic speech recognition (ASR), which is a key component in current speech-based systems.
