    摘要: In communication applications, aggregate source image data at a transmitter exceeds the data that is needed to display a rendering of a viewport at a receiver. Improved streaming techniques that include estimating a location of a viewport at a future time. According to such techniques, the viewport may represent a portion of an image from a multi-directional video to be displayed at the future time, and tile(s) of the image may be identified in which the viewport is estimated to be located. In these techniques, the image data of tile(s) in which the viewport is estimated to be located may be requested at a first service tier, and the other tile in which the viewport is not estimated to be located may be requested at a second service tier, lower than the first service tier.

    摘要: Various of the disclosed embodiments relate to multiple video encoders that are used to simultaneously encode a video using encoders configured using different encoding parameters. A segment selector selects an encoded version of the encoded video segment using operational criteria such as video quality and bandwidth. A configuration determination module may analyze the video segment to make a decision about which encoding parameter configurations may be suitable for encoding the video segment. The configuration determination module may be trainable, based on past encoding results.

    摘要: An imaging system may include an array of pixels that each generates pixel data and a pixel data compression system. The pixel data compression system may include pixel data to variable-precision floating-point conversion circuitry, discrete wavelet transform circuitry, encoding circuitry, and serialization circuitry. The pixel data to variable-precision floating-point conversion circuitry may generate bits associated with a floating-point representation of the pixel data. The bits associated with the floating-point representation may include a sign component, an exponent component, and a mantissa component. The exponent component may be offset by a value to generate the floating-point value associated with the pixel data.

    摘要: A semiconductor device with a novel structure is provided. Input neuron circuits, hidden neuron circuits, and output neuron circuits are hierarchically connected to one another through plural synapse circuits. Each synapse circuit includes an analog memory which stores data corresponding to a connection strength between the input neuron circuit and the hidden neuron circuit or between the hidden neuron circuit and the output neuron circuit, a writing circuit which changes the data in the analog memory, and a weighting circuit which outputs an output signal obtained by weighting an input signal in accordance with data in the analog memory. The analog memory is formed using a transistor including an oxide semiconductor having extremely low off-state current. It is not necessary to mount a large-scale capacitor for holding data and to recover analog data by regular refresh operation; thus, reduction in a chip area and reduction in power consumption are possible.
