BFF: Simple explanations for complex phenomena
Charlotte Knierim, Luca Versari, Robert Obryk +2
The ''Computational Life'' paper (Agüera y Arcas et al., 2024) argues that paired interactions in a computational soup are an effective way to find self-replicators. In this work,…
The JPEG XL Image Coding System: History, Features, Coding Tools, Design Rationale, and Future
Jon Sneyers, Jyrki Alakuijala, Luca Versari +9
JPEG XL is a new image coding system offering state-of-the-art compression performance, lossless JPEG recompression, and advanced features. It aims to replace JPEG, PNG, GIF, and o…
MesaNet: Sequence Modeling by Locally Optimal Test-Time Training
Johannes von Oswald, Nino Scherrer, Seijin Kobayashi +14
Sequence modeling is currently dominated by causal transformer architectures that use softmax self-attention. Although widely adopted, transformers require scaling memory and compu…
Good, Cheap, and Fast: Overfitted Image Compression with Wasserstein Distortion
Jona Ballé, Luca Versari, Emilien Dupont +2
Inspired by the success of generative image models, recent work on learned image compression increasingly focuses on better probabilistic models of the natural image distribution,…
Computational Life: How Well-formed, Self-replicating Programs Emerge from Simple Interaction
Blaise Agüera y Arcas, Jyrki Alakuijala, James Evans +5
The fields of Origin of Life and Artificial Life both question what life is and how it emerges from a distinct set of "pre-life" dynamics. One common feature of most substrates whe…
Users prefer Jpegli over same-sized libjpeg-turbo or MozJPEG
Martin Bruse, Luca Versari, Zoltan Szabadka +1
We performed pairwise comparisons by human raters of JPEG images from MozJPEG, libjpeg-turbo and our new Jpegli encoder. When compressing images at a quality similar to libjpeg-tur…
