Abstract
End-to-end neural image compression using deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is performed by at least one processor and includes encoding an input, generating encoded representations of the input, generating a set of quantization keys using a first neural network, based on a set of previous quantization states, wherein each quantization key in the set of quantization keys and each previous quantization state in the set of previous quantization states correspond to the encoded representations of the input, generating a set of dequantized numbers representing dequantized representations of the encoded representations of the input, based on the set of quantization keys, using a second neural network, and generating a reconstructed output, based on the set of dequantized numbers.
