""" Selective Decoding — smart decode triggering for streaming video. For 1000+ cameras, we can't decode every frame. The JEPA predictor runs continuously producing embeddings, but the MoE decoder is only invoked when a semantic shift is detected — i.e., when something meaningfully changes in the scene. This reduces decoding operations by ~2.85x for stationary scenes while never missing important events. Algorithm: 1. Maintain a running embedding for each camera stream 2. Compare new frame embedding with previous using cosine similarity 3. If similarity < threshold → semantic shift → trigger decode 4. Optionally: agglomerative clustering for temporal segmentation """ import torch import torch.nn as nn import torch.nn.functional as F from collections import defaultdict class SelectiveDecoder: """ Monitors embedding streams and triggers decoding only on semantic shifts.
