  • Publication number: 20180165789
    Abstract: Techniques are described in which a device is configured to retrieve a metadata buffer for rendering a sub-frame of a set of sub-frames for a frame. A data block of a data buffer is configured to store image data for rendering the sub-frame. In response to determining, based on the metadata buffer for rendering the sub-frame, that the sub-frame includes a color pattern, fixed color value, or combination thereof, the device refrains from retrieving the image data from the data block of the data buffer and determines the image data for rendering the sub-frame based on the metadata buffer.

  • Publication number: 20180150897
    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can improve diversity in media item recommendations. For example, the computing device can generate a satisfaction score representing an estimate of the amount satisfaction a user will experience when a candidate media item selected by the user is presented (e.g., played) by the system. The system can determine the difference in satisfaction scores for similar media items over time to determine the amount of satisfaction gained with a subsequent selection and presentation of similar candidate media items. The system can rank candidate media items based the satisfaction gain calculated for each candidate media item and select suggested media items to present to the user based on the candidate media items having the highest satisfaction gain. In some implementations, the computing device can generate satisfaction scores based on an adventurousness score calculated for the user.
