Abstract
In some embodiments, a method receives source content. A pre-processor pre-processes the source content to output pre-processed source content. The pre-processor includes a first parameter that is trained based on a differentiable proxy codec, and a calculated adjustment to a second parameter of the differentiable proxy codec is used to train the first parameter of the pre-processor. The method encodes the pre-processed source content into compressed pre-processed source content. The compressed pre-processed source content is output.
