UHD Video Encoding in CPU Versus GPU: Quality and Performance Trade-Offs by Andoni Salcedo-Navarro, Juan Gutierrez-Aguado, Miguel Garcia-Pineda

“…This paper analyses the coding efficiency of video encoders on CPUs and GPUs with 4K content. We have selected three families of encoders (H264/AVC, HEVC, and AV1) and have computed the Bjøntegaard Delta (BD) using a set of 15 UHD videos to compare the results of the CPU implementation (libx264, libx265, and librav1e) with their GPU version (h264_nvenc, h265_nvenc, and av1_nvenc) of each family. …”

Representational models: A common framework for understanding encoding, pattern-component, and representational-similarity analysis. by Jörn Diedrichsen, Nikolaus Kriegeskorte

“…In RSA, the unequal variances and statistical dependencies of the dissimilarity estimates need to be taken into account to reach near-optimal power in inference. The three methods render different aspects of the information explicit (e.g. single-response tuning in encoding analysis and population-response representational dissimilarity in RSA) and have specific advantages in terms of computational demands, ease of use, and extensibility. …”

GAT-Enhanced YOLOv8_L with Dilated Encoder for Multi-Scale Space Object Detection by Haifeng Zhang, Han Ai, Donglin Xue, Zeyu He, Haoran Zhu, Delian Liu, Jianzhong Cao, Chao Mei

“…The local features extracted by convolutional neural networks are mapped to graph-structured data, and the nodal attention mechanism of GAT is used to capture the global topological association of space objects, which makes up for the deficiency of the convolutional operation in weight allocation and realizes GAT integration. The Dilated Encoder network is introduced to cover different-scale targets by differentiating receptive fields, and the feature weight allocation is optimized by combining it with a Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM). …”
