Based on an IWOCL 2017 tutorial Unlock Intel GPUs for High Performance Compute, Media and Computer Vision.
Intel provides many extensions to the Khronos OpenCL™ standard to help you utilize the full range of hardware capabilities.
These extensions are not standalone. They build upon each other.
The tutorial code focuses on subgroups, VME, and VEBox. Image processing and sharing extensions are also used in the tutorials code as solution components.

Intel Gen GPUs accelerate the search for motion in video. This is a core codec component but can also be used in a wide range of applications from custom bitrate control to computer vision.
Intel GPUs contain a specialized IP block designed for video enhancement operations.
