  • From Image Super-Resolution to Face Hallucination

    Prof. Chen Change Loy 03 Mar,2017 11:30am – 12:00pm Room 1009, William M.W. Mong Engineering Building Single image super-resolution is a classical problem in computer vision. It aims at recovering a high-resolution image from a single low-resolution image. This problem is an underdetermined inverse problem, of which solution is not unique. In this seminar I……


  • The Case for Data Analytic Social Science

    Prof. Chiu Dah-Ming, Winston 19 Aug,2016 11:30am – 12:00pm Room 1009, William M.W. Mong Engineering Building As more and more services are moving online, the “digital footprint” of the societal activities grows exponentially, and has become valuable resources for different stakeholders. This opens up tremendous opportunities for multi-disciplinary research – what I call “Data Analytic……


  • Towards a Scalable PHY of Cloud-RAN: A Randomized Message Passing Approach

    Prof. Angela Y.J. Zhang 24 Jun,2016 11:30am – 12:00pm Room 1009, William M.W. Mong Engineering Building Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) is a promising architecture for unprecedented capacity enhancement in next-generation wireless networks thanks to the centralization and virtualisation of base station processing. However, centralized signal processing in C-RANs involves high computational complexity that quickly……


  • “Signing into One Billion Strangers’ Mobile App Accounts – Security Issues of OAuth-based Single-Sign-On services in the Wild”

    Prof. Lau Wing-Cheong 11 May,2016 11:30am – 12:00pm Room 1009, William M.W. Mong Engineering Building The Open Authentication (OAuth2.0) protocol and its variants, e.g. Google’s OpenIDConnect, have been adopted by Online Service Providers worldwide to support Single-Sign-On and authorization operations. Despite numerous security analyses and implementation guidelines, fool-proof integration of OAuth 2.0 with 3rd-party web/mobile……
