DYNAMIC USER-DEVICE UPSCALING OF MEDIA STREAMS

Abstract:

A method disclosed herein provides for receiving, at a user device, a media stream including frames of a first resolution generated by a graphics-rendering application and utilizing one or more weight matrices pre-trained in association with the graphics-rendering application to locally upscale each received frame of the media stream at the user device to a second resolution greater than the first resolution. Local upscaling of the media stream may be performed "on the fly," such as with respect to individual content streams (e.g., a game) or segments of content streams (e.g., a scene within a game).
