Channel-wise Autoregressive Entropy Models for Learned Image Compression

David Minnen, Saurabh Singh

In learning-based approaches to image compression, codecs are developed by optimizing a computational model to minimize a rate-distortion objective. Currently, the most effective l…

Nonlinear Transform Coding

Johannes Ballé, Philip A. Chou, David Minnen +5

We review a class of methods that can be collected under the name nonlinear transform coding (NTC), which over the past few years have become competitive with the best linear trans…

Joint Autoregressive and Hierarchical Priors for Learned Image Compression

David Minnen, Johannes Ballé, George Toderici

Recent models for learned image compression are based on autoencoders, learning approximately invertible mappings from pixels to a quantized latent representation. These are combin…

Towards a Semantic Perceptual Image Metric

Troy Chinen, Johannes Ballé, Chunhui Gu +8

We present a full reference, perceptual image metric based on VGG-16, an artificial neural network trained on object classification. We fit the metric to a new database based on 14…

Image-Dependent Local Entropy Models for Learned Image Compression

David Minnen, George Toderici, Saurabh Singh +2

The leading approach for image compression with artificial neural networks (ANNs) is to learn a nonlinear transform and a fixed entropy model that are optimized for rate-distortion…

Spatially adaptive image compression using a tiled deep network

David Minnen, George Toderici, Michele Covell +6

Deep neural networks represent a powerful class of function approximators that can learn to compress and reconstruct images. Existing image compression algorithms based on neural n…
