  • Publication number: 20250069270
    Abstract: A method includes obtaining image data, identifying a machine learning-compressible (ML-compressible) portion of the image data, and determining a location of the ML-compressible portion within the image data. The method also includes selecting, from a plurality of ML compression models, an ML compression model for the ML-compressible portion based on an image content thereof, and generating, based on the ML-compressible portion and by the ML compression model, an ML-compressed representation of the ML-compressible portion. The method further includes generating a compressed image data file that includes the ML-compressed representation and the location of the ML-compressible portion, and outputting the compressed image data file. The compressed image data file is configured to cause an ML decompression model corresponding to the ML compression model to generate a reconstruction of the ML-compressible portion of the image data based on the ML-compressed representation.
