Abstract
A method of unification based coding for neural network model compression is performed by at least one processor and includes receiving a layer uniform flag indicating whether a quantized weight of an input neural network is encoded using a uniform coding method, and determining whether the quantized weight is encoded using the uniform coding method, based on the received layer uniform flag. The method further includes, based on the quantized weight being determined to be encoded using the uniform coding method, encoding the quantized weight, using the uniform coding method, and based on the quantized weight being determined to not be encoded using the uniform coding method, encoding the quantized weight, using a non-uniform coding method.
