Abstract
Methods and apparatus for image compression/decompression using tensor product B-spline (TPB) representations. According to an example embodiment, an image-compression method includes generating a plurality of TPB models representing an image, including a TPB model for approximating a spatial reshaping function and a plurality of patch-wise TPB models for estimating the image signal. In some examples, the plurality of patch-wise TPB models includes a plurality of luma-channel TPB models and a plurality of chroma-channel TPB models. The spatial reshaping function is configured to shift a non-uniform distribution of local content complexity in the image toward being more uniform. The method also includes generating a metadata stream carrying metadata representing sets of coefficients of various TPB models. At least a portion of the metadata is generated by quantizing the corresponding coefficients to a smaller number of bits and applying arithmetic coding to the quantized coefficients.
