One key challenge to the learning-based image compression is that adaptive bit allocation is crucial for compression effectiveness but can hardly be trained into a neural network. Hereby, in this work, We presents an end-to-end trainable image compression framework, named Multi-scale Progressive Network (MPN) to achieve spatially variant bit allocation and rate control through the guidance of a novel learnable just noticeable distortion (JND) map. Specifically, MPN's encoder archives multi-scale feature representation through a three-branched structure. Each branch employs an independent feature extraction strategy for the specific receptive field and merge progressively under the guidance of corresponding learnable JND maps that generated by our proposed Bit-Allocation sub-Network (BAN), which make MPN focus on the areas where attract the human visual system (HVS) and preserve more texture of the image during the compression procedure. Finally, a hybrid objective function is introduced to further make MPN more efficient and mimic the discriminative characteristics of the human visual system (HVS). Experiments show that MPN significantly outperforms traditional JPEG, JPEG 2000 and few state-of-art learning-based methods by multi-scale structural similarity (MS-SSIM) index, and has the ability to produce the much better visual result with rich textures, sharp edges, and fewer artifacts.

Surveillance and security scenarios usually require high efficient facial image compression scheme for face recognition and identification. While either traditional general image codecs or special facial image compression schemes only heuristically refine codec separately according to face verification accuracy metric. We propose a Learning based Facial Image Compression (LFIC) framework with a novel Regionally Adaptive Pooling (RAP) module whose parameters can be automatically optimized according to gradient feedback from an integrated hybrid semantic fidelity metric, including a successfully exploration to apply Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) as metric directly in image compression scheme. The experimental results verify the framework’s efficiency by demonstrating performance improvement of 71.41%, 48.28% and 52.67% bitrate saving separately over JPEG2000, WebP and neural network-based codecs under the same face verification accuracy distortion metric. We also evaluate LFIC’s superior performance gain compared with latest specific facial image codecs. Visual experiments also show some interesting insight on how LFIC can automatically capture the information in critical areas based on semantic distortion metrics for optimized compression, which is quite different from the heuristic way of optimization in traditional image compression algorithms.

Lossy compression of image and video yields visually annoying artifacts including blocking, blurring, ringing, etc., especially at low bit rates. In-loop filtering techniques can reduce these artifacts, improve quality, and achieve coding gain accordingly. In this paper, we present a convolutional neural network (CNN) based in-loop filter for High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). First, we design a new CNN structure that is composed of multiple Variable-filter-size Residue-learning blocks, namely VRCNN-ext, for artifact reduction. VRCNN-ext is trained by natural images as well as their compressed versions at different quality levels. Second, we investigate a new in-loop filter based on the trained VRCNN-ext models. Specifically, we observed that using VRCNN-ext directly on the inter pictures is not effective. To solve this problem, we further train a classifier to decide whether to use VRCNN-ext for each coding unit (CU). The classifier makes decision based on the compressed information, thus avoiding the overhead bits to control the on/off of the CNN-based filter at the CU level. Experimental results show that our scheme achieves significant bits saving than the HEVC anchor, leading to on average 9.2%, 9.6% and 7.4% BD-rate reduction on the HEVC test sequences, under all-intra, low-delay B and random-access configurations, respectively.

The classification of large-scale high-resolution SAR land cover images acquired by satellites is a challenging task, facing several difficulties such as semantic annotation with expertise, changing data characteristics due to varying imaging parameters or regional target area differences, and complex scattering mechanisms being different from optical imaging. Given a large-scale SAR land cover dataset collected from TerraSAR-X images with a hierarchical three-level annotation of 150 categories and comprising more than 100,000 patches, three main challenges in automatically interpreting SAR images of highly imbalanced classes, geographic diversity, and label noise are addressed. In this letter, a deep transfer learning method is proposed based on a similarly annotated optical land cover dataset (NWPU-RESISC45). Besides, a top-2 smooth loss function with cost-sensitive parameters was introduced to tackle the label noise and imbalanced classes’ problems. The proposed method shows high efficiency in transferring information from a similarly annotated remote sensing dataset, a robust performance on highly imbalanced classes, and is alleviating the over-fitting problem caused by label noise. What’s more, the learned deep model has a good generalization for other SAR-specific tasks, such as MSTAR target recognition with a state-of-the-art classification accuracy of 99.46%. © 2019, CC BY.

International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition

Semantic information is important in video encryption. However, existing image quality assessment (IQA) methods, such as the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), are still widely applied to measure the encryption security. Generally, these traditional IQA methods aim to evaluate the image quality from the perspective of visual signal rather than semantic information. In this paper, we propose a novel semantic-level full-reference image quality assessment (FR-IQA) method named Semantic Distortion Measurement (SDM) to measure the degree of semantic distortion for video encryption. Then, based on a semantic saliency dataset, we verify that the proposed SDM method outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms. Furthermore, we construct a Region Of Semantic Saliency (ROSS) video encryption system to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed SDM method in the practical application.

Inspired by the progress of image and video super-resolution (SR) achieved by convolutional neural network (CNN), we propose a CNN-based residue SR method for video coding. Different from the previous works that operate in the pixel domain, i.e. down- and up-sampling of image or video frame, we propose to perform down- and up-sampling in the residue domain. Specifically, for each block, we perform motion estimation and compensation to achieve residual signal at the original resolution, then we down-sample the residue and compress it at low resolution, and perform residue SR using a trained CNN model. We design a new CNN for residue SR with the help of the motion compensated prediction signal. We integrate the residue SR method into the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) scheme, providing mode decision at the level of coding tree unit. Experimental results show that our method achieves on average 4.0% and 2.8% BD-rate reduction under low-delay P and low-delay B configurations, respectively.

High efficient facial image compression is broadly required and challenging for surveillance and security scenarios, while either traditional general image codecs or special facial image compression schemes only heuristically refine codec separately according to face verification accuracy metric.

LEARNED SCALABLE IMAGE COMPRESSION WITH BIDIRECTIONAL CONTEXT DISENTANGLEMENT NETWORK

arXiv 2018年

In this paper, we propose a learned scalable/progressive image compression scheme based on deep neural networks (DNN), named Bidirectional Context Disentanglement Network (BCD-Net). For learning hierarchical representations, we first adopt bit-plane decomposition to decompose the information coarsely before the deep-learning-based transformation. However, the information carried by different bit-planes is not only unequal in entropy but also of different importance for reconstruction. We thus take the hidden features corresponding to different bit-planes as the context and design a network topology with bidirectional flows to disentangle the contextual information for more effective compressed representations. Our proposed scheme enables us to obtain the compressed codes with scalable rates via a one-pass encoding-decoding. Experiment results demonstrate that our proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art DNN-based scalable image compression methods in both PSNR and MS-SSIM metrics. In addition, our proposed model achieves better performance in MS-SSIM metric than conventional scalable image codecs. Effectiveness of our technical components is also verified through sufficient ablation experiments. Copyright © 2018, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Motion estimation and motion compensation are fundamental in video coding to remove the temporal redundancy between video frames. The current video coding schemes usually adopt block-based motion estimation and compensation using simple translational or affine motion models, which cannot efficiently characterize complex motions in natural video signal. In this paper, we propose a frame extrapolation method for motion estimation and compensation. Specifically, based on the several previous frames, our method directly extrapolates the current frame using a trained deep network model. The deep network we adopted is a redesigned Video Coding oriented LAplacian Pyramid of Generative Adversarial Networks (VC-LAPGAN). The extrapolated frame is then used as an additional reference frame. Experimental results show that the VC-LAPGAN is capable in estimating and compensating for complex motions, and extrapolating frames with high visual quality. Using the VC-LAPGAN, our method achieves on average 2.0% BD-rate reduction than High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) under low-delay P configuration.

One key challenge to learning-based video compression is that motion predictive coding, a very effective tool for video compression, can hardly be trained into a neural network. In this paper we propose the concept of PixelMotionCNN (PMCNN) which includes motion extension and hybrid prediction networks. PMCNN can model spatiotemporal coherence to effectively perform predictive coding inside the learning network. On the basis of PMCNN, we further explore a learning-based framework for video compression with additional components of iterative analysis/synthesis, binarization, etc. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Although entropy coding and complex configurations are not employed in this paper, we still demonstrate superior performance compared with MPEG-2 and achieve comparable results with H.264 codec. The proposed learning-based scheme provides a possible new direction to further improve compression efficiency and functionalities of future video coding. Copyright © 2018, The Authors.
