Claim 0:
1. An apparatus, comprising:
a memory configured to store executable code;
at least one processor configured to execute the executable code to cause the apparatus to,
receive data representing a first frame of video content, the video content comprising a plurality of frames;
determine, for at least one object the first frame, an object type and position in the first frame;
using a policy model, determine a number of frames N of the plurality of frames to skip over based on the type and position of the at least one object in the first frame and the type and position of the at least one objects in one or more prior frames of the video content, wherein the policy model has been trained using a reinforced learning method which uses a reward function that rewards, for given states indicative of the type and position of the one or more objects in the frame, an increase in the number of frames N skipped over, while penalizing the skipping over of determined key frames, wherein the key frames are frames in which new objects appear or object transitions occur; and
provide the N+1 frame of the plurality of frames, and not the skipped-over frames, to a vision model processor configured to analyse the provided N+1 frame.
