  • Patent number: 12626789
    Abstract: A computing device comprising a processor is configured to perform the techniques of this disclosure. The processor may duplicate a first node of a tree data structure to create a duplicate node, and create an inbound edge of the duplicate node to a parent node of the first node and an outbound edge to at least one child node of the first node. The processor may receive an update to the at least one child node of the first node. In response to determining that the at least one child node has multiple parent nodes, the processor may duplicate the at least one child node to create a duplicate child node, create an outbound edge of the duplicate node to the duplicate child node, delete the outbound edge of the duplicate node to the at least one child node, and perform the update to the at least one child node.

  • Patent number: 12563264
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a localized video encoding application encodes localized videos. In operation, the localized video encoding application computes a prediction frame based on a target frame of a localized video and at least a portion of a reference frame of a decoded original video. The localized video encoding application computes a residual frame based on the prediction frame and the target frame of the localized video. The localized video encoding application performs one or more encoding operations on the residual frame to generate a frame of an encoded localization layer. The frame of the encoded localization layer and at least one frame of an encoded original video are subsequently transmitted to another device for decoding.

  • Publication number: 20260039595
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a congestion control module within a transport stack limits the rate at which packets are transmitted from a server to a client device based on a percentage of the available capacity of a network path through which the packets are transmitted. In some embodiments, the available network path capacity can be determined by first performing a linear regression using (1) send durations over which packets associated with encoded frames are transmitted, and (2) corresponding reception durations over which the packets associated with the encoded frames are received, in order to determine a line that relates send duration and reception duration. After the line is determined, the available network path capacity can be computed as an estimated intersection between the determined line and the line y=x, with the intersection being approached as a limit.

  • Patent number: 12455778
    Abstract: A cloud computing system can be configured to generate a synthetic data stream that tracks a reference data stream. A model optimizer of the cloud computing system can receive, from an interface of the cloud computing system, a synthetic data stream request indicating a reference data stream. A dataset generator of the cloud computing system can generate a synthetic data stream that tracks the reference data stream by repeatedly swapping data models of the reference data stream. One such repeat can include retrieving, by the dataset generator from a model storage, a current data model of the reference data stream and generating a new data model of the reference data stream. The model optimizer can store the new data model in the model storage. The dataset generator can generate a synthetic data stream using the current data model of the reference data stream.
