    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for compressing content using a neural network. An example method generally includes receiving content for compression. The content is encoded into a first latent code space through an encoder implemented by an artificial neural network trained to generate a latent space representation of the content. A first compressed version of the encoded content is generated using a first quantization bin size of a series of quantization bin sizes. A refined compressed version of the encoded content is generated by scaling the first compressed version of the encoded content into one or more second quantization bin sizes smaller than the first quantization bin size, conditioned at least on a value of the first compressed version of the encoded content. The refined compressed version of the encoded content is output for transmission.
