Intro
Great progress and wide applications has been witnessed in the field of image and graphics technology in the past few years, with the upsurge of deep learning and artificial intelligence. To better promote the development of image and graphics, the China Society of Image and Graphics (CSIG) calls for from its professional committees and publishes in Journal of Image and Graphics the "Annual Report on the Development of Image and Graphics", which aims to systematically analyze the development status, cutting-edge topics and development trends of important research directions in the field of image and graphics technology, so as to better serve the scientific and technical community and further promote the development and application of image and graphics technology. Out of the 15 annual reports on the development of image and graphics in 2020, this summit forum invites six speakers (on behalf of the professional committees) to share their systematically survey and analysis on the development status, cutting-edge topics and development trends of six important research directions in the field of image and graphics technology.

Title: Recent Advances in Video Processing and Coding
Abstract: Video processing and compression are one of the most fundamental research areas in multimedia computing technology. They play a significant role in bridging the imaging and streaming devices as well as the visual analysis and understanding. In the contemporary era, the “5G+UHD+AI” is revoking a novel trend of technology revolution in multimedia computing. The video processing and compression techniques are also facing challenging reform. The demands are increasing for the theoretical and application research on high-efficient compact representation and high performance real-time processing. The cutting-edge research area and content in video processing and compression are systematically reviewed and analyzed, including statistical prior model based video data representation and processing methods, deep network based video processing and compression and video compression standardization process. The state-of-the-art methods and the developing trends are also comprehensively overviewed. In addition, the comparative study of those area between the oversea community and the domestic community is also extensively conducted to show the difference and similarity in the current situation. Finally, the future work of theoretical and application studies in video processing and compression is envisioned.

Title: The road towards immersive experience: perception, quality assessment and compression for 360o video
Abstract: Immersive media is being well developed and will be dominant as future multimedia services. In recent years, 360o video has gradually gained popularity and become the main carrier of immersive communication, providing immersive viewing experience. However, 360o video covers wide range with high resolution, resulting in explosive growth in data. This causes the bandwidth-hungry issue for transmitting these visual data, with the bottleneck between the supply and demand of communication bandwidth. On the other hand, the field of view for humans to watch 360o video only occupies 1/10 of the 360o video area, thus existing a large amount of perceptual redundancy. In order to breakthrough the bottleneck of immersive communication bandwidth, some works have been proposed for perception, quality evaluation and compression on 360o video. This report thus includes the topics: (1) Deep imitation learning based attention models on 360o video; (2) Data-driven approaches for visual quality assessment on 360o video; (3) Perception-inspired optimization for 360o video compression.

Title: Recent Progress of Biometrics
Abstract: Biometric recognition empowers a machine to automatically detect, capture, process, analyze, and recognize digital physiological or behavioral signals with advanced intelligence. Biometrics is a typical and complex pattern recognition problem, which is a frontier research direction of artificial intelligence. This talk reviews research progress, emerging directions, existing problems, and feasible ideas of main biometric modalities, including iris, face, fingerprint, finger/palm vein, gait, voiceprint, person re-identification, etc. Three major challenges in the field of biometric recognition are analyzed including acquisition, recognition and security issue. Especially security risks of biometric systems such as spoofing attacks, adversarial attacks, deepfake attacks have attracted great attentions recently. So trustworthy biometrics is a research focus in the future.
