Abstract
Disclosed are techniques for compressing data of an image. Intermediate pixels may be determined. Each location of the image may be associated with a block of a plurality of blocks of a first size and a block of a plurality of blocks of a second size. For each block of the first size and of the second size, a first cost for a first mode and a second cost for a second mode may be determined in parallel using the intermediate pixels. A final mode and a final block size may be selected for each location of the image using the first cost and the second cost for each of a respective block of the first size and a respective block of the second size associated with a corresponding location. Final pixels may be determined, and a representation of the image may be obtained based on the final pixels.
