AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology allows images captured on multiple cameras or sensors to have their own unique characteristics that match up well together without sacrificing quality. It also assigns codes based upon these properties better than just one level per pixel. By doing this, it saves resources while still capturing high-quality visual data accurately.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed by this patented technology relates to improving image compressing techniques that rely heavily upon depth-learning algorithms like CNNs or other types of artificial intelligence (Al) networks for accurate analysis of images without sacrificing detail when analyzed with simpler models than those used during training.

Abstract

The invention discloses an image compression method based on multi-scale feature coding. The image compression method comprises the steps: obtaining a selection vector through the averaging of the absolute values of gradient spectrums of image features of a training set, and guiding different channel features to select the coding resolution through the selection vector; meanwhile, recovering the features of low-resolution coding at a decoding end through a super-resolution network; and finally recombining the features of low-resolution coding with the features of high-resolution coding to forma complete feature spectrum, and mapping the complete feature spectrum back to an original image. According to the image compression method, difference processing is carried out according to the characteristics of the image characteristics, and the characteristics easy to recover from the context information are transmitted at low resolution, so that the code rate is saved; and for complex fine features, high-resolution transmission is adopted, so that the loss degree is reduced.
