More specifically, we designed a compressor network with Refine-Net for residual coding signals and motion vectors.

• Abstract: This paper proposes a learning-based video codec, specifically used for Challenge on Learned Image Compression (CLIC, CVPRWorkshop) 2020 P-frame coding. More specifically, we designed a compressor network with Refine-Net for coding residual signals and motion vectors. Also, for motion estimation, we introduced a hierarchical, attention-based ME-Net. To verify our design, we conducted an extensive ablation study on our modules and different input formats. Our video codec demonstrates its performance by using the perfect reference frame at the decoder side specified by the CLIC P-frame Challenge. The experimental result shows that our proposed codec is very competitive with the Challenge top performers in terms of quality metrics.

  This thesis provides three primary contributions to this new field of learned compression. First, we present an efficient low-complexity entropy model that dynamically adapts the encoding distribution to a specific input by compressing and transmitting the encoding distribution itself as side information. Secondly, we propose a novel lightweight low-complexity point cloud that is highly specialized for classification, attaining significant reductions in compared to non-specialized codecs.

  Cross-Modality Video Coding (CMVC) is a pioneering approach to explore multimodality representation and video generative models in video coding. During decoding, previously encoded components and video generation models are leveraged to create multiple encoding-decoding modes. Experiments indicate that TT2V achieves effective semantic reconstruction, while IT2V exhibits competitive perceptual consistency.

  We propose a saliency-driven coding framework for the video coding for machines task using the latest video coding standard Versatile Video Coding (VVC) To determine the salient regions before encoding, we employ the real-time-capable object detection network You Only Look Once(YOLO) in combination with a novel decision criterion. We find that, compared to the reference VVC with a constant quality, up to 29 % of accuracy can be saved with the same detection at the decoder side by applying the proposed saliency-driven framework.

  We propose an end-to-end learned video that introduces several architectural novelties as well as training novelties. As one architectural novelty, we propose to train the inter-frame model to adapt the motion estimation process based on the resolution of the input video. A second architectural novelty is a new neural block that combines concepts from split-attention based neural networks and from DenseNets.

  We propose a new deep learning video compression architecture that does not require motion estimation. Our framework exploits the regularities inherent to video motion, which we capture by using displaced frame differences as video representations. Our experiments show that our compression model, which we call the MOtionless VIdeo Codec (MOVI-Codec), learns how to efficiently compress videos without computing motion.

  Single encoder-decoder methodologies for semantic segmentation are reaching their peak in terms of segmentation quality and efficiency per number of layers.

In order to further improve the architecture we introduce a weight function which aims to re-balance classes to increase the attention of the networks to under-represented objects.

  Video coding, which targets to compress and reconstruct the whole frame, and feature compression, which only preserves and transmits the most critical information, stand at two ends of the scale. Recent endeavors in imminent trends of video compression, e.g. deep learning based coding tools and end-to-end image/video coding, and MPEG-7 compact feature descriptor standards, promote the sustainable and fast development in their own directions. In this paper, thanks to booming AI technology, e.g. prediction and generation models, we carry out exploration in the new area, Video Coding for Machines (VCM), arising from the emerging MPEG

  Video Coding for Machine (VCM) aims to bridge the gap between visual feature compression and classical video coding.

By learning to extract sparse motion pattern via a predictive model, the network elegantly leverages the feature representation to generate the appearance of to-be-coded frames.
