Abstract
Systems and methods for Neural Texture Block Compression (NTBC) of graphics textures using neural networks are disclosed. NTBC employs multi-layer perceptron (MLP) networks to map uncompressed textures to block-compressed formats, such as BC1 and BC4, achieving storage reductions while maintaining reasonable visual quality. The methods and systems use MLPs to compress textures in BC1 and BC4 formats. A first neural network comprises an endpoint network that predicts endpoints for each data point of a block of a texture. The second neural network is a color network which predicts original colors of uncompressed textures. To encode the inputs to these neural networks, multi-resolution feature grids are used that allows for usage of small MLPs and encourages model optimization.
