DESCRIPTION:The IEEE Communication and Signal Processing (CSP) Chapter woul
 d like to invite you to a technical seminar on Tuesday\, 11 August 2026\, 
 by Dr Ioannis Katsavounidis\, Meta Platforms & IEEE SPS Distinguished Indu
 stry Speaker. The talk\, titled "Video Quality Optimization in Adaptive St
 reaming - from principles to popular applications\," will start at 6:00 pm
  (Adelaide time).\n\nAbstract:\n\nWe will review the history of video enco
 ding\, covering aspects of video codecs and quality metrics that have been
  exploited to optimize video delivery. Next\, we will discuss the roots of
  convex optimization in video coding\, connecting statistical multiplexing
 \, rate-distortion optimization and how these led to the dynamic optimizat
 ion framework. We will also discuss the complexity of video encoding (and 
 quality metrics) and present the concept of a three-part tradeoff among bi
 trate-quality-complexity\, as well as the important role this tradeoff pla
 ys in massive video processing systems. We will analyze software (SW) and 
 hardware (HW) transcoding pipelines and conclude with an array of open res
 earch problems\, including the use of ML/AI in video coding and video qual
 ity metrics.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr Katsavounidis\n\nRoom: N158 Chapman lecture
