  • Publication number: 20190158836
    Abstract: An encoder of a multimedia system encodes data representative of each image in a video stream to form a bitstream that is transmitted over a network to a decoder that decodes the bitstream and provides the decoded information to a multimedia application for display to the user. As consecutive images may have nearly identical pixel values, the multimedia system detects pixel value variations between consecutive images that are below a specified threshold to reduce active processing on such pictures, which includes, for example, encoding, decoding, and post-processing. The multimedia system either selectively encodes or selectively processes the current image that has pixel values that vary from an immediately preceding image within the specified threshold.

  • Publication number: 20190104311
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for encoding bitstreams of uniquely rendered video frames with variable frame rates are disclosed. A rendering unit and an encoder in a server are coupled via a network to a client with a decoder. The rendering unit dynamically adjusts the frame rate of uniquely rendered frames. Depending on the embodiment, the rendering unit conveys a constant frame rate to the encoder by repeating some frames or the rendering unit conveys a variable frame rate to the encoder by conveying only uniquely rendered frames to the encoder. Depending on the embodiment, the encoder conveys a constant frame rate bitstream to the decoder by encoding repeated frames as skip frames, or the encoder conveys a variable frame rate bitstream to the decoder by dropping repeated frames from the bitstream.

  • Publication number: 20190004842
    Abstract: A technique for varying firmware for different virtual functions in a virtualized device is provided. The virtualized device includes a hardware accelerator and a microcontroller that executes firmware. The virtualized device is virtualized in that the virtualized device performs work for different virtual functions (with different virtual functions associated with different virtual machines), each function getting a “time-slice” during which work is performed for that function. To vary the firmware, each time the virtualized device switches from performing work for a current virtual function to work for a subsequent virtual function, one or more microcontrollers of the virtualized device examines memory storing addresses for firmware for the subsequent virtual function and begins executing the firmware for that subsequent virtual function. The addresses for the firmware are provided by a corresponding virtual machine at configuration time.

  • Patent number: 10013985
    Abstract: The present application discloses a method, an electronic system and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium for recognizing audio commands in an electronic device. The electronic device obtains audio data based on an audio signal provided by a user and extracts characteristic audio fingerprint features from the audio data. The electronic device further determines whether the corresponding audio signal is generated by an authorized user by comparing the characteristic audio fingerprint features with an audio fingerprint model for the authorized user and with a universal background model that represents user-independent audio fingerprint features, respectively. When the corresponding audio signal is generated by the authorized user of the electronic device, an audio command is extracted from the audio data, and an operation is performed according to the audio command.

  • Publication number: 20180063549
    Abstract: Described is a system and method for dynamically changing a resolution level at a frame level based on runtime pre-encoding analysis of content in a video stream. A video encoder continuously analyzes the content during runtime, and collects statistics and/or characteristics of the content before encoding it. This classifies the frame among pre-defined categories of content, where every category has its own bitrate/resolution relation. The runtime encoding resolution is dynamically dependent on the target bitrate and the collected statistics and/or characteristics of the content. This achieves a high quality encode for sequences that are composed of scenes with various content complexity levels for different frames in the video streams.

  • Patent number: 9805715
    Abstract: A method of recognizing speech commands includes generating a background acoustic model for a sound using a first sound sample, the background acoustic model characterized by a first precision metric. A foreground acoustic model is generated for the sound using a second sound sample, the foreground acoustic model characterized by a second precision metric. A third sound sample is received and decoded by assigning a weight to the third sound sample corresponding to a probability that the sound sample originated in a foreground using the foreground acoustic model and the background acoustic model. The method further includes determining if the weight meets predefined criteria for assigning the third sound sample to the foreground and, when the weight meets the predefined criteria, interpreting the third sound sample as a portion of a speech command. Otherwise, recognition of the third sound sample as a portion of a speech command is forgone.
