Abstract
Neural image compression using substitutional quality factor learning in a latent space, including receiving a compressed bitstream and a target quality factor indicating a target compression quality, calculating a decoded latent representation of the compressed bitstream, and calculating a reconstructed image based on the decoded latent representation of the compressed bitstream and the target quality factor, computing a shared feature based on a network forward computation using shared decoding parameters (SDP) of one or more layers of a convolutional neural network, computing estimated adaptive decoding parameters (ADP) for the one or more layers of the convolutional neural network based on the shared feature, the adaptive decoding parameters, and the target quality factor, and computing an output tensor based on the estimated ADP in the one or more layers of the convolutional neural network and the shared feature.
