Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with 283 million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, films and games across a wide variety of genres and languages. Members can play, pause and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time.
Our Video Encoding organization has the big undertaking to run our production at scale and with high efficiency. As part of the Video Algorithm team during this 6-month internship, you will be actively developing machine-learning-based tools for next-generation video coding standards. Video encoding seeks to reduce the data size so that the files can be easily transferred between locations. However, it may introduce undesirable artifacts. Striking a good balance between compression efficiency and reconstruction quality is key. The use of ML models alongside traditional signal processing approaches can significantly improve this tradeoff by leveraging the rapidly growing computing powers from GPUs/NPUs. This internship project will investigate multiple state-of-the-art ML architectures as well as modern training techniques for distilling low-complexity models with this goal in mind.
