  • Patent number: 11386532
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a computing system may receive a video including a sequence of frames. The computing system may access a three-dimensional mask that specifies pixel-sampling locations, the three-dimensional mask having a first dimension and a second dimension corresponding to a spatial domain and a third dimension corresponding to a temporal domain. Blue noise property may be present in the pixel-sampling locations that are associated with each of a plurality of two-dimensional spatial slices of the three-dimensional mask in the spatial domain and the pixel-sampling locations that are associated with each of a plurality of one-dimensional temporal slices of the three-dimensional mask in the temporal domain. The computing system may generate a sample of the video by sampling the sequence of frames using the three-dimensional mask.

  • Patent number: 10846888
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for generating completed frames from sparse data may access sample datasets associated with a sequence of frames, respectively. Each sample dataset may comprise incomplete pixel information of the associated frame. The system may generate, using a first machine-learning model, the sequence of frames, each having complete pixel information, based on the sample datasets. The first machine-learning model is configured to retain spatio-temporal representations associated with the generated frames. The system may then access a next sample dataset comprising incomplete pixel information of a next frame after the sequence of frames. The system may generate, using the first machine-learning model, the next frame based on the next sample dataset.
