Dr. Ishfaq Ahmad and Dr. Jiancong Luo receive 2007 Best Paper Award

July 1, Dr. Ishfaq Ahmad and his past Ph.D. student Jiancong Luo
(a graduate of our department) received the 2007 Best Paper Award for
IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology.
The paper entitled, "On Using Game Theory to Optimize the
Rae Control in Video Coding," was judged by two independent
committees in a tough evaluation procedure. The
paper proposes an innovative approach to controlling the bit rate
in high-quality video compression for storage or delivery.
IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology
is ranked number 5 in all IEEE journals.
Dr. Ahmad and Dr. Luo received $500 cash prize each
and certificates. The awards were presented on May 29 at
International Symposium on Circuits and Systems in
New Orleans.
Dr. Luo is working as a research scientist at Thomson Research Labs in
New Jersey
