SELF-ORGANIZED VARIATIONAL AUTOENCODERS (SELF-VAE) FOR LEARNED IMAGE COMPRESSION
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
In end-to-end optimized learned image compression, it is standard practice to use a convolutional variational autoencoder with generalized divisive normalization (GDN) to transform images into a latent space. Recently, ...
BM3D VS 2-LAYER ONN
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
Despite their recent success on image denoising, the need for deep and complex architectures still hinders the practical usage of CNNs. Older but computationally more efficient methods such as BM3D remain a popular choice, ...
