Abstract: The technology employs a patch-based multi-scale Transformer (300) that is usable with various imaging applications. This avoids constraints on image fixed input size and predicts the quality effectively on a native resolution image. A native resolution image (304) is transformed into a multi-scale representation (302), enabling the Transformer's self-attention mechanism to capture information on both fine-grained detailed patches and coarse-grained global patches. Spatial embedding (316) is employed to map patch positions to a fixed grid, in which patch locations at each scale are hashed to the same grid. A separate scale embedding (318) is employed to distinguish patches coming from different scales in the multiscale representation. Self-attention (508) is performed to create a final image representation. In some instances, prior to performing self-attention, the system may prepend a learnable classification token (322) to the set of input tokens.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that relate to generating quantization tables that are used during digital image compression of a digital image. Multiple training images are obtained. A model can be trained using the training images to generate a quantization table that can be used during encoding of an input image.
