Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to improve performance of a compute device by detecting a scene change

Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to improve performance of a compute device by detecting a scene change. An example apparatus includes scene change detection circuitry and interrupt circuitry. The example scene change detection circuitry is to determine a first score value for a first metric of similarity between a first image of a field of view (FOV) of an image sensor and a second image of the FOV, determine a second score value for a second metric of similarity between the first image and the second image, and compute a composite score value based on the first score value and the second score value. The example interrupt circuitry is to generate an interrupt to processor circuitry of the compute device to cause the processor circuitry to adjust a computation condition of the compute device based on the composite score.
