The Institute of Media Information and Network (MIN) has been dedicated to researches on the information process technologies for digital media, including researches on the fundamental theory and key technologies in the fields of signal processing, computer vision, machine learning, multimedia communications, and bio-medical informatics. Our research team include 7 full professors (3 full-time and 4 guest professors), 3 associate professors, and over 30 Ph.D. and Master research assistants. Until now, the team members have received or been awarded the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars, the Yangtze River Scholar award, the National High Level Talents Special Support Plan, the Program of Shanghai Subject Chief Scientist, and the Humboldt Research Fellow. Within the related research fields, our research team have published over 300 international journal/conference papers, including over 100 journal papers (over 70 of which were published on top journals, such as IEEE TSP, IEEE TIP, IEEE TCSVT, IEEE/ACM TPAMI) and over 200 conference papers (over 40 of which were published on top conferences, such as CVPR, ACM MM, AAAI, DCC). The total number of citations of our published papers has exceeded 4000. The MIN institute has been granted over 20 NSFC funds, including the State Key Program, the State Key Program of International Cooperation and Exchanges, the Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars, etc., with the total funding exceeding twenty million RMBs. In addition, over 80 Chinese patent applications have been submitted, over 50 of which have been granted. Through the Industry-Academia-Research corporation and the application of scientific and technological research outcomes, the proposed theory and method for adaptive video media representation, the proposed video encoding/decoding technology, and the proposed optimization-based transmission technology have been awarded the First Prize of Shanghai Technology and Innovation Award in 2011 and 2017, respectively.
