Determining regions of interest using learned image codec for machines

Abstract

Various embodiments describe an apparatus, a method, and a computer program product. An example apparatus includes at least one processor; and at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to perform: encoding an input picture by using a first encoder or first encoding parameters; encoding the input picture by using a second encoder or second encoding parameters; generating a first reconstructed picture based on the encoding of the input picture by using the first encoder or the first encoding parameters; and generating a second reconstructed picture based on the encoding of the input picture by using the second encoder or the second encoding parameters.
