Brief Description

Kwok-Wai Cheung received the BEng, MSc and PhD degrees from City University of Hong Kong in 1990, 1994 and 2001, all in Electronic Engineering. He worked in PCCW (formerly Hong Kong Telecom) as trainee engineer/project engineer from 1990 to 1995. He was a research student/research assistant at the Department of Electronic Engineering, City University of Hong Kong, from 1996 to 2002. Currently, he is Assistant Professor of the Department of Computer Science, Chu Hai College. Dr. Cheung's research interests are in the areas of image/video coding, vector quantization, and multimedia database.
