Abstract
A method and apparatus for adaptive neural image compression with smooth quality control by meta-learning includes receiving an input image and a target quality control parameter; generating quality-adaptive weight parameters of an encoding neural network using shared encoding parameters and adaptive encoding parameters; and encoding the input image, based on the target quality control parameter, using the encoding neural network with the quality-adaptive weight parameters, to generate a compressed representation.
