Publication number: 20240177319Abstract: Many unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) methods have been proposed to bridge the domain gap by utilizing domain invariant information. Most approaches have chosen depth as such information and achieved remarkable successes. Despite their effectiveness, using depth as domain invariant information in UDA tasks may lead to multiple issues, such as excessively high extraction costs and difficulties in achieving a reliable prediction quality. As a result, we introduce Edge Learning based Domain Adaptation (ELDA), a framework which incorporates edge information into its training process to serve as a type of domain invariant information. Our experiments quantitatively and qualitatively demonstrate that the incorporation of edge information is indeed beneficial and effective, and enables ELDA to outperform the contemporary state-of-the-art methods on two commonly adopted benchmarks for semantic segmentation based UDA tasks.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2023Publication date: May 30, 2024Applicant: MEDIATEK INC.Inventors: Ting-Hsuan Liao, Huang-Ru Liao, Shan-Ya Yang, Jie-En Yao, Li-Yuan Tsao, Hsu-Shen Liu, Bo-Wun Cheng, Chen-Hao Chao, Chia-Che Chang, Yi-Chen Lo, Chun-Yi Lee

Publication number: 20240108978Abstract: A remote display synchronization technique preserves the presence of a local display device for a remotely-rendered video stream. A server and a client device cooperate to dynamically determine a target frame rate for a stream of rendered frames suitable for the current capacities of the server and the client device and networking conditions. The server generates from this target frame rate a synchronization signal that serves as timing control for the rendering process. The client device may provide feedback to instigate a change in the target frame rate, and thus a corresponding change in the synchronization signal. In this approach, the rendering frame rate and the encoding frequency may be “synchronized” in a manner consistent with the capacities of the server, the network, and the client device, resulting in generation, encoding, transmission, decoding, and presentation of a stream of frames that mitigates missed encoding of frames while providing acceptable latency.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2022Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Jeffrey G.
