Abstract
Cloud computing provides reliable, affordable, and flexible resources for many applications and users with constrained computing resources and capabilities. The cloud computing concept is becoming an appealing paradigm for many industries including the gaming industry, leading to the introduction of cloud gaming architectures. Despite its advantages, cloud gaming suffers from unguaranteed end-to-end delay as well as server side's computational complexity. In this paper, a novel algorithm for reducing the computational complexity and hence speeding up the video encoding speed is proposed. Specifically, by performing minimum modifications in the game engine and the video codec, some information from the game engine is fed into the video encoder to bypass the motion estimation (ME) process. Our results show that the proposed method achieves up to 39% speedup in the ME process, leading to a 24% acceleration in the total encoding process.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
