  • Publication number: 20230087097
    Abstract: A booster engine enhances the quality of a frame sequence. The booster engine receives, from a first stage circuit, the frame sequence with quality degradation in at least a frame. The the quality degradation includes at least one of uneven resolution and uneven frame per second (FPS). The booster engine queries an information repository for reference information on the frame, using a query input based on at least a region of the frame to obtain a query output. The booster engine then applies a neural network to the query input and the query output to generate an optimized frame, and sends an enhanced frame sequence including the optimized frame to a second stage circuit.
