Abstract
An example system includes an encoder configured to receive a bit string and encode the bit string into a visual representation, and a decoder configured to receive an image including the visual representation and decode the bit string from the visual representation. In some examples, the encoder and decoder are trained as a pair by obtaining a training bit string, encoding the training bit string into a training visual representation using the encoder, decoding the training visual representation using the decoder to generate a decoded bit string, determining an error between the training bit string and the decoded bit string, and updating parameters of the encoder and decoder to reduce the error.
