The JPEG standard is widely used in different image processing applications. One of the main components of the JPEG standard is the quantisation table (QT) since it plays a vital role in the image properties such as image quality and file…

As a commonly-used image compression format, JPEG has been broadly applied in the transmission and storage of images. To further reduce the compression cost while maintaining the quality of JPEG images, lossless transcoding technology has…

With the growth of computer vision based applications and services, an explosive amount of images have been uploaded to cloud servers which host such computer vision algorithms, usually in the form of deep learning models. JPEG has been…

Learned image compression allows achieving state-of-the-art accuracy and compression ratios, but their relatively slow runtime performance limits their usage. While previous attempts on optimizing learned image codecs focused more on the…

Python is rapidly becoming the lingua franca of machine learning and scientific computing. With the broad use of frameworks such as Numpy, SciPy, and TensorFlow, scientific computing and machine learning are seeing a productivity boost on…

In recent years, many convolutional neural network-based models are designed for JPEG artifacts reduction, and have achieved notable progress. However, few methods are suitable for extreme low-bitrate image compression artifacts reduction.…

The ever-growing amounts of visual contents captured on a daily basis necessitate the use of lossy compression methods in order to save storage space and transmission bandwidth. While extensive research efforts are devoted to improving…

Learning-based image compression was shown to achieve a competitive performance with state-of-the-art transform-based codecs. This motivated the development of new learning-based visual compression standards such as JPEG-AI. Of particular…

Recent expansions in multimedia devices gather enormous amounts of real-time images for processing and inference. The images are first compressed using compression schemes, like JPEG, to reduce storage costs and power for transmitting the…

The assessment of face image quality is crucial to ensure reliable face recognition. In order to provide data subjects and operators with explainable and actionable feedback regarding captured face images, relevant quality components have…

JPEG is one of the popular image compression algorithms that provide efficient storage and transmission capabilities in consumer electronics, and hence it is the most preferred image format over the internet world. In the present digital…

Image representations are often evaluated through disjointed, task-specific protocols, leading to a fragmented understanding of model capabilities. For instance, it is unclear whether an image embedding model adept at clustering images is…

A growing number of Machine Learning Frameworks recently made Deep Learning accessible to a wider audience of engineers, scientists, and practitioners, by allowing straightforward use of complex neural network architectures and algorithms.…

With the rapid development of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and the growing demand for their applications, efficient compression of the image inputs has become increasingly important. Existing VLMs predominantly digest and understand…

The rapid progress of subject-driven text-to-image synthesis, and in particular DreamBooth, has enabled a consent-free deepfake pipeline: an adversary needs only 4-8 publicly available face images to fine-tune a personalized diffusion model…

Gzip is a file compression format, which is ubiquitously used. Although a multitude of gzip implementations exist, only pugz can fully utilize current multi-core processor architectures for decompression. Yet, pugz cannot decompress…

Linear algebra operations, which are ubiquitous in machine learning, form major performance bottlenecks. The High-Performance Computing community invests significant effort in the development of architecture-specific optimized kernels, such…

The need for fast diagnostic image viewing in zero footprint web applications and the ever increasing image sizes for new modalities such as digital pathology have painfully brought to light that the currently available image compression…

JPEG is one of the widely used lossy compression methods. JPEG-compressed images usually suffer from compression artifacts including blocking and blurring, especially at low bit-rates. Soft decoding is an effective solution to improve the…
