PhD School
ACM Multimedia Asia 2021 will be held in a hybrid mode by offering both online and offline events. A live in-person PhD School with an online-broadcasting component will be enabled. It is physically held in Beijing, Chengdu, Sydney and Brisbane simultaneously on Day 3. This brand new session targets research students and early career researchers interested in exploring emerging research topics in Multimedia. It provides strategies on how to approach PhD study and pursue research excellence (e.g., Keynote 3), opportunities to communicate with senior researchers (e.g., on-site tutorials), and PhD presentation training (e.g., PhD lightning talk competition).
