Codebook Capacity Governs Perceptual Quality Across Resolutions in Hierarchical Discrete Video Compression

Manikanta Kotthapalli, Banafsheh Rekabdar

Learned video codecs based on continuous latent representations typically require resolution-specific retraining or rate-distortion (RD) recalibration when scaling to new spatial r…

Entropy-Coded MS-VQ-VAE with Learned Priors for Ultra-Low Bitrate Video Compression

Manikanta Kotthapalli, Banafsheh Rekabdar

Learned video codecs based on continuous latent representations struggle to operate reliably below 0.1 bits per pixel~(bpp): without a differentiable rate signal, Lagrangian optimi…
