Assignee: DEEPX CO., LTD.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 19:
20. An apparatus for encoding video and/or feature map the apparatus comprising:
a first circuitry provided for at least one processing element (PE) to perform an inference using an artificial neural network, the at least one PE is configured to receive and encode a transmitted video or feature map,
wherein the at least one PE is configured to output a bitstream,
wherein the bitstream includes:
data of a base layer; or
the data of the base layer and data of at least one enhancement layer,
wherein the data of the base layer included in the bitstream includes a first feature map, and the data of the at least one enhancement layer included in the bitstream includes a second feature map,
wherein the bitstream is transmitted in unit of one frame,
wherein an NPU receives feedback information on a number of enhancement layers in the frame from a decoding apparatus, and
wherein the number of enhancement layers is determined based on at least one of a transmission channel and a machine analysis task of the decoding apparatus.
