Apparatuses, methods, and computer programs for compressing a neural network are disclosed. An apparatus includes at least one processor; and at least one non-transitory memory including computer program code, the memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to: receive information from a second device, where the information comprises at least one parameter configured to be used for compression of a neural network, where the at least one parameter is in regard to at least one first aspect or task of the neural network; and compress the neural network, where the neural network is compressed based, at least partially, upon the at least one parameter received from the second device. The apparatus may also receive a compressed neural network from the second device, and further compress the compressed neural network based on the information.

High-level syntax for priority signaling in neural network compression

An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; and at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: receive a signal, the signal comprising a sparse signal; perform residual coding on the signal; perform predictive coding on the signal; determine a residual, the residual comprising a residual of the signal and a base signal or a residual of an approximation and the base signal, the approximation being an approximation of the signal; and determine whether to transmit the residual or the signal over a communication channel.
