Abstract

Recently, learned image compression has achieved remarkable performance. Entropy model, which accurately estimates the distribution of latent representation, plays an important role in boosting rate distortion performance. Most entropy models capture correlations in one dimension. However, there are channel-wise, local and global spatial correlations in latent representation. To address this issue, we propose multi-reference entropy models MEM and MEM+ to capture channel, local and global spatial contexts. We divide latent representation into slices. When decoding current slice, we use previously decoded slices as contexts and use attention map of previously decoded slice to predict global correlations in current slice. To capture local contexts, we propose enhanced checkerboard context capturing to avoid performance degradation while retaining two-pass decoding. Based on MEM and MEM+, we propose image compression models MLIC and MLIC+. Extensive experimental evaluations have shown that our MLIC and MLIC+ achieve state-of-the-art performance and they reduce BD-rate by 9.77% and 13.09% on Kodak dataset over VVC when measured in PSNR.
