Research Themes
Offered at the regional
level and aimed at supporting basic research in
promising areas, projects in a research theme
typically have a 2-3 year cycle, addressing the local
market needs. Themes are assessed
on an annual basis and may vary as changes in the
discipline, the industry, or the academia occur.
Opportunity-based Projects
Opportunity-based collaborations target one of MSR Asia's research
areas and of mutual interest to both the researcher and
the professor. These projects are typically initiated
by an individual researcher or a research group and facilitated by the University Relations group.
Joint Labs
MSR Asia builds joint
research labs with universities in the regions.
Since 1999, ten labs have been established in
universities in mainland China and Hong Kong,
covering a variety of research areas including
natural language processing, multimedia,
intelligent systems, computer vision, etc. For a
