Abstract
Video streaming plays a critical role in the video analytics pipeline and thus its adaptation scheme has been a focus of optimization. As machine learning algorithms have become main consumers of video contents, the streaming adaptation decision should be made to optimize their inference performance. Existing video streaming adaptation schemes for video analytics are usually designed to adapt to bandwidth and content variations separately, which fail to consider the coordination between transmission and computation. Given the nature of batch transmission in video streaming and batch processing in deep learning-based inference, we observe that the choices of the batch sizes directly affects the bandwidth efficiency, the response delay and the accuracy of the deep learning inference in video analytics. In this work, we investigate the effect of the batch size in transmission and processing, formulate the optimal batch size adaptation problem, and further develop the deep reinforcement learning-based solution. Practical issues are further addressed for Implementation. Extensive simulations are conducted for performance evaluation, whose results demonstrate the superiority of our proposed batch adaptive streaming approach over the baseline streaming approaches.

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
