Abstract

Technology to encode/compress and decode/uncompress video streams is described. According to one example, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a server and from a first device associated with a first participant of a videoconference involving a second device associated with a second participant, a first compressed video stream and a first decoding model. The first decoding model is trained via machine learning, and the first compressed video stream is compressed using a first encoding model trained via machine learning. The first encoding and decoding models are customized to the first participant. The server is adapted to transmit to the second device, the first decoding model and the first compressed video stream.
