Image compression is one of the most fundamental techniques and commonly used applications in the image and video processing field. Earlier methods built a well-designed pipeline, and efforts were made to improve all modules of the pipeline by handcrafted tuning. Later, tremendous contributions were made, especially when data-driven methods revitalized the domain with their excellent modeling capacities and flexibility in incorporating newly designed modules and constraints. Despite great progress, a systematic benchmark and comprehensive analysis of end-to-end learned image compression methods are lacking. In this paper, we first conduct a comprehensive literature survey of learned image compression methods. The literature is organized based on several aspects to jointly optimize the rate-distortion performance with a neural network, i.e., network architecture, entropy model and rate control. We describe milestones in cutting-edge learned image-compression methods, review a broad range of existing works, and provide insights into their historical development routes. With this survey, the main challenges of image compression methods are revealed, along with opportunities to address the related issues with recent advanced learning methods. This analysis provides an opportunity to take a further step towards higher-efficiency image compression. By introducing a coarse-to-fine hyperprior model for entropy estimation and signal reconstruction, we achieve improved rate-distortion performance, especially on high-resolution images. Extensive benchmark experiments demonstrate the superiority of our model in rate-distortion performance and time complexity on multi-core CPUs and GPUs.

One of the core components of conventional (i.e., non-learned) video codecs consists of predicting a frame from a previously-decoded frame, by leveraging temporal correlations. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end learned system for compressing vi
deo frames. Instead of relying on pixel-space motion (as with optical flow), our system learns deep embeddings of frames and encodes their difference in latent space. At decoder-side, an attention mechanism is designed to attend to the latent space of frames to decide how different parts of the previous and current frame are combined to form the final predicted current frame. Spatially-varying channel allocation is achieved by using importance masks acting on the feature-channels. The model is trained to reduce the bitrate by minimizing a loss on importance maps and a loss on the probability output by a context model for arithmetic coding. In our experiments, we show that the proposed system achieves high compression rates and high objective visual quality as measured by MS-SSIM and PSNR. Furthermore, we provide ablation studies where we highlight the contribution of different components.
We present an end-to-end trainable framework for P-frame compression in this paper. A joint motion vector (MV) and residual prediction network MV-Residual is designed to extract the ensembled features of motion representations and residual informatio
n by treating the two successive frames as inputs. The prior probability of the latent representations is modeled by a hyperprior autoencoder and trained jointly with the MV-Residual network. Specially, the spatially-displaced convolution is applied for video frame prediction, in which a motion kernel for each pixel is learned to generate predicted pixel by applying the kernel at a displaced location in the source image. Finally, novel rate allocation and post-processing strategies are used to produce the final compressed bits, considering the bits constraint of the challenge. The experimental results on validation set show that the proposed optimized framework can generate the highest MS-SSIM for P-frame compression competition.
Hyperspectral images (HSIs) can provide rich spatial and spectral information with extensive application prospects. Recently, several methods using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to reconstruct HSIs have been developed. However, most deep learn
ing methods fit a brute-force mapping relationship between the compressive and standard HSIs. Thus, the learned mapping would be invalid when the observation data deviate from the training data. To recover the three-dimensional HSIs from two-dimensional compressive images, we present dual-camera equipment with a physics-informed self-supervising CNN method based on a coded aperture snapshot spectral imaging system. Our method effectively exploits the spatial-spectral relativization from the coded spectral information and forms a self-supervising system based on the camera quantum effect model. The experimental results show that our method can be adapted to a wide imaging environment with good performance. In addition, compared with most of the network-based methods, our system does not require a dedicated dataset for pre-training. Therefore, it has greater scenario adaptability and better generalization ability. Meanwhile, our system can be constantly fine-tuned and self-improved in real-life scenarios.
We propose a novel joint lossy image and residual compression framework for learning $ell_infty$-constrained near-lossless image compression. Specifically, we obtain a lossy reconstruction of the raw image through lossy image compression and uniforml
y quantize the corresponding residual to satisfy a given tight $ell_infty$ error bound. Suppose that the error bound is zero, i.e., lossless image compression, we formulate the joint optimization problem of compressing both the lossy image and the original residual in terms of variational auto-encoders and solve it with end-to-end training. To achieve scalable compression with the error bound larger than zero, we derive the probability model of the quantized residual by quantizing the learned probability model of the original residual, instead of training multiple networks. We further correct the bias of the derived probability model caused by the context mismatch between training and inference. Finally, the quantized residual is encoded according to the bias-corrected probability model and is concatenated with the bitstream of the compressed lossy image. Experimental results demonstrate that our near-lossless codec achieves the state-of-the-art performance for lossless and near-lossless image compression, and achieves competitive PSNR while much smaller $ell_infty$ error compared with lossy image codecs at high bit rates.
Fusing intra-operative 2D transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) image with pre-operative 3D magnetic resonance (MR) volume to guide prostate biopsy can significantly increase the yield. However, such a multimodal 2D/3D registration problem is a very challeng
ing task. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end frame-to-volume registration network (FVR-Net), which can efficiently bridge the previous research gaps by aligning a 2D TRUS frame with a 3D TRUS volume without requiring hardware tracking. The proposed FVR-Net utilizes a dual-branch feature extraction module to extract the information from TRUS frame and volume to estimate transformation parameters. We also introduce a differentiable 2D slice sampling module which allows gradients backpropagating from an unsupervised image similarity loss for content correspondence learning. Our model shows superior efficiency for real-time interventional guidance with highly competitive registration accuracy.
