Patent number: 12126828Abstract: A computer-implemented method of decoding video data in multiple resolution formats includes receiving an encoded video stream including a salient data and a non-salient data, the salient data having a higher resolution format than the non-salient data. The video stream is decoded into the non-salient data in a lower-resolution format and the salient data in the higher-resolution format. The non-salient data is reconstructed to a higher resolution format. The salient data and the reconstructed non-salient data are combined to form a video stream in the higher-resolution format of the salient data.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2023Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Umar Asif, Lenin Mehedy, Jianbin Tang

Publication number: 20220101184Abstract: A machine learning model can be optimized for deployment on a device based on hardware specifications of the device. An existing model is acquired and pruned to reduce hardware resource consumption of the model. The pruned model is then trained based on training data. The pruned model is also trained based on a collection of “teacher” models. Performance of the trained model is then evaluated and compared to performance requirements, which can be based on the hardware specifications of a device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2020Publication date: March 31, 2022Inventors: Umar Asif, Stefan von Cavallar, Jianbin Tang, Stefan Harrer

Publication number: 20220101185Abstract: A machine learning model can be updated based on collected data (i.e., initially unlabeled data). The unlabeled data can be labeled based on comparisons to labeled data. The newly labeled data, referred to as “weak labeled data” (as it was labeled without direct input of a professional) can then be used as training data in order to retrain the machine learning model.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2020Publication date: March 31, 2022Inventors: Umar Asif, Stefan von Cavallar, Jianbin Tang, Stefan Harrer
