TOOL SELECTION FOR FEATURE MAP ENCODING VS REGULAR VIDEO ENCODING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18554177 titled 'TOOL SELECTION FOR FEATURE MAP ENCODING VS REGULAR VIDEO ENCODING

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes an apparatus that can generate two types of encoded data - one with encoded data of a feature map based on a neural network, and one without this feature map data.

  • The apparatus includes a determining unit to decide if the encoded data will include the feature map.
  • An encoding unit generates the first encoded data using multiple functions for encoding video data, without the feature map data.
  • The encoding unit generates the feature map data using only a portion of the functions when generating the second encoded data.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Apparatus can generate encoded data with or without feature map data based on a neural network.
  • Uses multiple functions for encoding video data.
  • Efficiently generates feature map data using a subset of functions when needed.

Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in video encoding, image processing, machine learning, and artificial intelligence systems.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for flexible encoding methods that can adapt to different data requirements.

Benefits:

  • Improved efficiency in generating encoded data.
  • Enhanced flexibility in encoding processes.
  • Better integration of neural network-based features in encoded data.

Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include video streaming services, surveillance systems, content delivery networks, and video analytics platforms.

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to video encoding, neural network-based encoding, and feature map generation in video data.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in video encoding techniques, neural network applications in video processing, and feature map utilization in data encoding.

Questions about video encoding: 1. How does this technology improve the efficiency of video encoding processes? 2. What are the potential applications of neural network-based encoding in different industries?


Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus for generating first encoded data and second encoded data. The apparatus comprises a determining unit for determining whether the apparatus generates encoded data including encoded data of a feature map based on a neural network. The apparatus also comprise an encoding unit for generating the first encoded data using a plurality of functions for encoding video data, in a case where the apparatus generates the first encoded data in a form of encoded video data not including the encoded data of the feature map. The encoding unit generates the encoded data of the feature map using a first part of the plurality of functions but not using a second part of the plurality of functions, in a case where the apparatus generates the second encoded data including the encoded data of the feature map.
