			=== Improve fast scene detection modes for rav1e ===

			Scene detection method determine where it's necessary to split video sequences for optimal encoding efficiency.

			==== Problem / Intro ====
			Currently implemented fast scene detection method is not optimal and sometimes give false results.

			==== Solution / Task ====
			Reevaluate current fast scene detection method. Fast method correctness can be improved.
			Possible features:
			* Adaptive resolution scaling for fast scene detection.
			* Implementing additional methods/metrics for fast scene detection.
			* Adaptive threshold for scene detection

			==== Requirements ====

			The student should be familiar with Rust.
			Video knowledge is preferable.

			Complexity: Medium.
