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…
Variational image compression with a scale hyperprior
Johannes Ballé, David Minnen, Saurabh Singh +2
We describe an end-to-end trainable model for image compression based on variational autoencoders. The model incorporates a hyperprior to effectively capture spatial dependencies i…
