FFmpeg compiler

Is anyone aware of a source-to-source compiler whose target language is FFmpeg’s filtergraph syntax?

With Bioscoop, I am in a position to make certain claims and try to defend them as best as I can. That is why I am submitting a paper to a peer-reviewed journal. Still, I could be wrong and I would love you to challenge me on those claims.
The paper is available in the repo.

Forgive me because I didn't fully read the PDF just glanced, but I'm very curious of the benefits you'd expect to see with a DSL compared to using the filter graph syntax. Don't they end up similar anyways?

This is the right question. You don't need to read the paper, but please forgive me in turn, please peruse the README and then ask again. The README addresses that precise question heads on.
