Claim 8:
9. An electronic device comprising:
a pixel array configured to display frames of image data; and
a backlight unit having light-emitting diodes that are configured to produce backlight illumination for the pixel array, wherein the backlight unit is configured to:
receive image data, identify a content type probability based on the image data, and select brightness values for the light-emitting diodes based at least on the content type probability;
for each patch of a plurality of patches in a frame of image data, use a neural network to identify a respective content type probability for that patch;
determine an average content type probability using the content type probabilities for the plurality of patches; and
select brightness values for the light-emitting diodes based at least on the average content type probability.
