  • Patent number: 10271008
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for enhanced resolution video and security via machine learning are disclosed. A transmitter reduces a resolution of each image of a videostream from a first, higher image resolution to a second, lower image resolution. The transmitter generates a set of parameters for programming a neural network to reconstruct a version of each image at the first image resolution. Then, the transmitter sends the images at the second image resolution to the receiver, along with the first set of parameters. The receiver programs a neural network with the first set of parameters and uses the neural network to reconstruct versions of the images at the first image resolution. The transmitter can send the first set of parameters to the receiver via a secure channel, ensuring that only the receiver can decode the images from the second image resolution to the first image resolution.
