ADAPTIVE VIDEO STREAMING SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Abstract:

Systems and method for streaming video content include downscaling video content using a downscaling model to generate downscaled video content and downloading the downscaled video content as a video stream and a corresponding upscaling model to a client device. The client device upscales the video stream using the received upscaling model for display by the client device in real-time. A training system trains the downscaling model to generate the downscaled video content, based on associated metadata identifying a type of video content. The downscaled video content and one or more associated upscaling models is stored for access by an edge server, which downloads a plurality of upscaling models to a client device configured to select an upscaling model for use by the client device. Example systems may include video streaming systems and video conferencing systems.
