  • Publication number: 20240087083
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for scalable compression of a digital image. The method contains the steps of extracting from the image semantic information at a semantic layer, extracting from the image structure information at a structure layer, extracting from the image signal information at a signal layer; and compressing each one of the semantic information, the structure information, and the signal information into a bitstream. A novel scalable cross-modality image compression is therefore provided where a wide spectrum of novel functionalities have been enabled, making the codec versatile for applications ranging from semantic understanding to signal-level reconstruction.

  • Patent number: 11270447
    Abstract: In a convolutional neural network (CNN) using an encoder-decoder structure for image segmentation, a multi-scale context aggregation module receives an encoded final-stage feature map from the encoder, and sequentially aggregates multi-scale contexts of this feature map from a global scale to a local scale to strengthen semantic relationships of contexts of different scales to improve segmentation accuracy. The multi-scale contexts are obtained by computing atrous convolution on the feature map for different dilation rates. To reduce computation, a channel-wise feature selection (CFS) module is used in the decoder to merge two input feature maps. Each feature map is processed by a global pooling layer followed by a fully connected layer or a 1×1 convolutional layer to select channels of high activation. By subsequent channel-wise multiplication and elementwise summation, only channels with high activation in both feature maps are preserved and enhanced in the merged feature map.
