  • Patent number: 12263410
    Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods, and devices for matching device configurations to games are presented. A set of device configuration tiers may be generated from gameplay telemetry data generated by a plurality of client devices executing a plurality of games. A device configuration for a specific client device may be determined based at least on the specific client device's GUI type. When the specific client device accesses a software game library a determination may be made based on a performance tier corresponding to the device configuration for the specific client device as to whether the specific client device can adequately execute each game. One or more recommendations may be rendered and displayed in the game library based on the determination of whether the specific client device can adequately execute each game.

  • Publication number: 20210124667
    Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to detecting potential issues in video processing. For each of multiple instances of time over a time period, a set of values corresponding to different performance metrics related to video processing can be obtained. A data structure can be generated to include the set of values. The data structure can be compared to a set of data structures in a convolutional neural network (CNN) model. Based on comparing the data structure to the set of data structures, it can be determined whether the set of values represent a potential issue in video processing or not.
