His research interests mainly lie in the field of multimedia communications, including but not limited to: 3D media compression and transmission (including avatar coding), low-bitrate Generative Face Video Coding (GFVC), error resilience and reliable video communications, and ultra-low-latency video coding and transmission for UAV and V2X scenarios.

Working on the full chain of efficient multimedia signal representation, coding/transmission, and visual perception, he has produced more than 100 research outputs, including journal papers, conference papers, standardization proposals, and related scientific contributions. His work has been published in high-level venues such as IEEE Transactions on Services Computing, IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing, and major international conferences including ICME, ICASSP, and DCC. Several of his technical contributions have also been adopted into ISO/IEC MPEG international standardization activities.

In the area of international standardization, Dr. Trioux has been deeply involved in ISO/IEC MPEG and related activities over the past years, with sustained contributions in digital human representation and coding, animation stream compression, and quality evaluation methodologies. To date, he has submitted more than 50 international standardization proposals, with more than half already adopted. He currently serves as Co-chair for the MPEG Adhoc group on animation compression, technical coordinator for Common Test Conditions (CTCs) and quality evaluation for 3D Gaussian Splatting coding, and technical coordinator for digital human representation and coding.

In terms of academic service and professional recognition, he has been elected as a member of the IEEE SPS MMSP-TC, IEEE CAS MSA-TC, and IEEE CAS VSPC-TC. He also serves as Associate Editor for two SCI-indexed journals, namely Signal Processing: Image Communication and the Journal on Image and Video Processing, and has delivered multiple tutorials, invited talks, and special presentations at major international venues such as ICME and VCIP.

Regarding international collaboration and project implementation, as a foreign expert working full-time in China since 2023, Dr. Trioux has been awarded several talent and foreign expert programs, including the State Foreign Expert Individual Program (2024–2025) and the Shaanxi Foreign Expert Service Program (2024, 2026). He also serves as the project leader of the Xi’an International Science and Technology Cooperation Base on Key Technologies and Applications of Visual Media Communications. So far, he has invited five foreign experts to China for academic visits and exchanges, and has established a stable international cooperation network supporting long-term research collaboration and project development.
