Compared with object-level and human-level point clouds, LiDAR point clouds have larger data scales and are more sparse, posing a challenge for the existing learning-based lossy compression scheme. In this paper, we resolve this issue by transforming the point cloud into a cylindrical coordinate system. In this way, we can better retain points close to the sensor with a high density while extending the receptive field of convolution in areas of low point density. Following cylindrical quantization, an autoencoder is utilized to progressively downsample voxels. The coordinates and latent features are compressed by G-PCC and hyperprior-based entropy encoding respectively. The results demonstrate that our approach performs better than PCGCv2. The visualization results also show that our algorithm can better retain the shape of objects. Ablation studies further prove the efficiency of the cylindrical coordinates. The code is publicly available at https: //***/AirManH/cylindrical_pcc.

Model compression is widely adopted for edge inference of neural networks (NNs) to minimize both costly DRAM accesses and memory footprints. Recently, XOR-based model compression has demonstrated promising results to maximize compression ratio and minimize accuracy drop. However, XOR-based decompression alone produces bit errors and requires auxiliary data for error correction. To minimize model size and hence DRAM traffic, we propose an enhanced decompression algorithm and a low-cost hardware accelerator for it. Since not all errors are equal, our algorithm selects only important errors to correct with no accuracy drop. Compared with the baseline XOR compression scheme correcting all errors, the compressed model size of ResNet-18 and VGG-16 is reduced by 23% and 27% respectively. We also present a low-cost hardware implementation of on-line XOR decompression and error-correction logic built on Gemmini, an open-source systolic array accelerator, at the cost of only a 0.39% and 0.46% increase in area and power.

The emerging trend of small satellites for earth observation missions has enabled commercial organisations to exploit the horizon for various business applications related to weather forecasting/monitoring, Land Use Land Cover (LULC) classifications, disaster (such as oil spill or forest fire) monitoring etc. However, the limited power and computational capacity of these small satellites arising out of the size and weight restrictions have posed newer challenges, primarily related to low-power on-board data processing and transmission. One possible approach is to harness the capabilities of the evolving neuromorphic computing paradigm for such low-power computing requirements. One possible application can be lossless compression of high-resolution earth observation images before sending those downstream to ground stations for further analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel method of lossless image compression based on classical Arithmetic Encoding that exploits the low power computing capability of Spiking Neural Networks and neuromorphic platforms. We experimentally prove that our SNN approach achieves compression ratio at-par with state of the art ANN methods with an estimated 2.5x power efficiency and 50% lower latency with a much smaller model - thereby enabling on-board image compression and at the same time, saving on a corresponding amount of energy during transmission.

This research presents a novel framework for the compression and decompression of medical images utilizing the Latent Diffusion Model (LDM). The LDM represents advancement over the denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) with a potential to yield superior image quality while requiring fewer computational resources in the image decompression process. A possible application of LDM and Torchvision for image upscaling has been explored using medical image data, such as mammography, serving as an alternative to traditional image compression and decompression algorithms. The experimental outcomes demonstrate that this approach surpasses a conventional file compression algorithm, and convolutional neural network (CNN) models trained with decompressed files perform comparably to those trained with original image files. This approach also significantly reduces dataset size so that it can be distributed with a smaller size, and medical images take up much less space in medical devices. The research implications extend to noise reduction in lossy compression algorithms and substitute for complex wavelet-based lossless algorithms.

The Karhunen-Loève transform (KLT), as a component of block scalar quanti-zation, is optimal among linear orthonormal transforms and allows to obtain the smallest value of mean squared error (MSE) for a given rate of data representation. In this paper we propose a novel and robust optimization scheme designed for arti-ficial neural networks that implies possibly minimal constraints and allows to obtain the KLT up to the permutation of basis vectors. The proposed scheme involves two optimization criteria: (i) minimization of the MSE of signal reconstruction and (ii) minimization of the entropy related criterion, see Fig. 1(a).
