Inventors include Adzic, Velibor; Furht, Borivoje; Kalva, Hari; and Merlos, Juan.
The application for the patent was published on September 04, 2026, under issue no. 36/2026.
Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for encoding and decoding video for machine consumption in which bandwidth is reduced by filtering feature layers and filtering channels at the encoder site that are determined to be redundant or of reduced relevance. A video encoder includes a neural network front end which receives image data and generates a plurality of feature layers. The relevance of the plurality of feature layers to a machine task at the decoder site is determined and redundant layers can be removed. Channels in at least one feature layer can be evaluated for redundancy and redundant channels also removed prior to encoding.
