Interim Dean Prof. Changwen CHEN Named in “PolyU Top 10 Research & Innovation Stories of the Year”
Prof. Chen, Interim Dean of the Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences (FCMS) and Chair Professor of Visual Computing in the Department of Computing, has been recognised for his pioneering work on VideoMind — a novel multi-modal agent developed by his team that enables AI to perform long video reasoning and question-answering tasks by emulating human-like thinking.
This breakthrough addresses a key challenge in AI, where existing models often struggle to understand long videos, and it accelerates the development of generative AI-assisted video analysis. The project was selected as one of “PolyU Top 10 Research & Innovation Stories of the Year” from 20 remarkable research and technology translation stories announced in 2025, following a rigorous evaluation that combined over 7,700 public votes with assessments from a professional judging panel.
