E2E learned compression may take the lead in image coding for machines, but its insufficient flexibility in adaptively allocating bits can sacrifice machine vision performance. Leveraging Regions-of-Interest can minimize the bits allocated for backgrounds, resulting in reduced bitrates while retaining the accuracy of machine tasks. Learn more about how this method can achieve impressive gains within learned image codecs.
