Abstract: A content rendering and display system operable to display content to a viewer, the system comprising a rendering unit operable to render an image having a first resolution in a first render pass, and to generate supplementary information in additional render passes, wherein the rendered image and the supplementary information are stored in a multi-layer image structure, an upsampling unit operable to perform an upsampling process on the rendered image so as to generate an image having a portion at a second resolution higher than the first resolution, wherein the upsampling process comprises a morphological antialiasing process that uses the supplementary information as an input, and a display device operable to display the upsampled image, wherein the supplementary information comprises edge information for the rendered image.

Abstract: An image processing method includes: inputting data representative of an image into a machine learning system, the machine learning system having been previously trained to predict a gaze position of viewers of images; obtaining a predicted gaze position from the machine learning system in response to the input data; performing predicted gaze position dependent image processing, the image processing producing at least a first region of the image corresponding to where a viewer is predicted to gaze, and a second region, with a first image quality of the first region being higher than a second image quality of the second region; and outputting the processed image.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus comprising circuitry configured to: obtain video game data from a video game application indicating an in-game situation; obtain data indicating a predicted in-game action of a first user in response to the in-game situation, the data indicating the predicted in-game action of the first user being based on past video game data and past in-game actions of one or more second users; determine, based on a recorded input from the first user, whether or not the predicted in-game action is instructed by the first user; and based on the determination, perform a reconfiguration process for reconfiguring a required input for the first user for instructing the predicted in-game action.
