ADAPTIVE MIXED-RESOLUTION PROCESSING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18478714 titled 'ADAPTIVE MIXED-RESOLUTION PROCESSING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes systems and techniques for adaptive mixed-resolution processing, where an input image is divided into tokens of different resolutions and processed using neural network models.

  • The device divides an input image into first tokens with a first resolution and second tokens with a second resolution.
  • It generates representations for the tokens from each resolution corresponding to a specific region of the input image.
  • A neural network model processes the token representations to determine the scale for the region of the input image.
  • A transformer neural network model processes the region of the input image according to the determined scale.

Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and techniques are described for adaptive mixed-resolution processing. According to some aspects, a device can divide an input image into first tokens having a first resolution and second tokens having a second resolution. The device can generate first token representations for token(s) from the first tokens corresponding to a first region of the input image and generate second token representations for token(s) from the second tokens corresponding to the first region of the input image. The device can process, using a neural network model, the first token representations and the second token representations to determine the first resolution or the second resolution as a scale for the first region of the input image. The device can process, using a transformer neural network model, the first region of the input image according to the scale for the first region.
