UL Procyon Video Editing Benchmark
The UL Procyon Video Editing Benchmark uses Adobe Premiere Pro in a typical video editing workflow. Using relevant apps ensures that the benchmark score reflects the real-world performance of the whole system.
The benchmark starts by importing two video project files. The project timelines include various edits, adjustments and effects. The second project uses several GPU-accelerated effects.
Each video project is exported in Full HD encoded with H.264 and again in 4K UHD encoded with HEVC (H.265). The benchmark score is based on the time taken to export all four videos.
UL Procyon AI Computer Vision Benchmark
Windows Machine Learning (Windows ML) is an API developed by Microsoft enabling high-performance AI inferences on Windows devices. Windows ML lets app developers write standard code that guarantees highly optimized AI inference performance across different hardware such as CPUs, GPUs and AI Accelerators by handling hardware abstraction.
Microsoft Windows ML hardware acceleration is built on top of DirectML, a low-level DirectX 12 library suitable for high-performance, low-latency applications such as frameworks, games, or machine learning inferencing workloads.
