Abstract

A distributed system and method for compressing and restoring data across edge computing devices and cloud infrastructure is disclosed. The system preprocesses raw data at edge computing devices, compresses the data into latent space vectors using distributed encoders within a variational autoencoder spanning edge and cloud components, decompresses the vectors using decoders, and processes them through a resource-aware neural upsampler to generate enhanced reconstructed outputs. The system dynamically adapts compression based on available computing resources and network conditions, while enabling secure distributed processing through homomorphic operations on compressed data. Edge-cloud coordination layers manage data flow, compression parameters, and workload distribution, while maintaining system reliability through intelligent failover handling and resource optimization.

Claims (21)

1 . A computer system for data compression and restoration, comprising:

a hardware memory, wherein the computer system is configured to execute software instructions stored on nontransitory machine-readable storage media comprising software instructions that cause the system to:

preprocess input video data;

compress the preprocessed input video data into latent representations using at least one encoder;

decompress the latent representations using at least one decoder; and

process the latent representations through a neural processor to generate enhanced video output, wherein the neural processor is configured to generate output containing additional information not present in outputs produced solely by the decoder;

wherein processing parameters are dynamically adjusted based on at least one of:

available computational resources and network conditions.

2 . The computer system of claim 1 , further comprising a correlator configured to group related latent representations prior to processing by the neural processor.

3 . The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one encoder and the at least one decoder form part of a variational architecture.

4 . The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the system comprises a distributed architecture spanning multiple computing devices.

5 . A computer-implemented method for data compression and restoration, comprising:

preprocessing input video data;

compressing the preprocessed input video data into latent representations using at least one encoder;

decompressing the latent representations using at least one decoder; and

processing the latent representations through a neural processor to generate enhanced video output, wherein the neural processor is configured to generate output containing additional information not present in outputs produced solely by the decoder;

wherein processing parameters are dynamically adjusted based on at least one of:

available computational resources and network conditions.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , further comprising grouping related latent representations prior to processing by the neural processor.

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the at least one encoder and the at least one decoder form part of a variational architecture.

8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the method is performed across a distributed architecture spanning multiple computing devices.
