Albireo is an adaptive, energy‑efficient inference framework for video object detection on edge devices that wraps existing detectors without modification. It uses a 10‑dimensional Kalman filter per active object to decide when to skip detector calls, predicting bounding boxes on skipped frames at near‑zero GPU cost. Evaluated on BDD100K with YOLO and RF‑DETR detectors on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor and Orin, Albireo maintains AP@50 within ±1.2 pp of full‑frame inference while reducing energy consumption by 12.1–17.6 % and improving accuracy for some models.

Tetris is a video object tracking system that uses tile-level sampling to efficiently extract high‑fidelity tracks. It partitions videos into tile‑based polyominoes, classifies relevant tiles, prunes redundant ones with an ILP under a user‑defined accuracy constraint, and packs the remaining polyominoes to minimize detector calls. On seven stationary‑video datasets, Tetris maintains less than a 5% loss in tracking accuracy while achieving up to 17.4× higher throughput than prior systems and up to 68.8× higher than a full‑frame reference pipeline.
