Hologram Representation via Quadratic Phase Gaussian Splatting

The paper introduces Complex-Valued Quadratic Phase Gaussian (CVQPG), a new hologram representation that replaces standard 2D Gaussian splatting with 2D quadratic phase functions. CVQPG adds learnable parameters to control the curvature of these bases, and the authors demonstrate that it improves visual quality by +0.19 dB (RGB) and +0.33 dB (grayscale) over state‑of‑the‑art methods while keeping the same parameter count. Frequency‑domain analysis shows that CVQPG preserves the mid‑to‑high frequency band of natural images.

Multi-scale Image Representation Compression

The paper introduces MIRC, an overfitted image codec that quantizes and entropy‑codes all components—including latents, synthesis network, and entropy models—within a single end‑to‑end rate‑distortion framework inspired by NVRC. It adds a multi‑scale representation with cross‑stage parameter sharing to capture cross‑scale redundancy, yielding a 10.5 % BD‑rate saving over VVC on the CLIC2020 professional set. MIRC offers multiple configurations ranging from 1.2 to 2.9 kMAC per pixel, allowing decoding complexity to be tuned to deployment needs.

HAMP-LIC: Hessian-Aware Mixed-Precision Post-Training Quantization for Learned Image Compression

Use this plain-text version for the arXiv abstract field: Learned image compression (LIC) models achieve strong rate-distortion performance but are hindered by high computational complexity and encoding-decoding mismatches across heterogeneous hardware platforms. Uniform fixed-precision quantization alleviates these issues but suffers severe quality degradation at low bit widths because it ignores differences in the quantization sensitivities of individual layers.

LRConv-NeRV: Low Rank Convolution for Efficient Neural Video Compression

LRConv-NeRV introduces low‑rank separable convolutions into the NeRV neural video decoder, replacing selected dense 3x3 layers to reduce computational load and memory usage. By applying low‑rank factorization progressively from the largest to earlier decoder stages, the method offers controllable trade‑offs between reconstruction quality and efficiency. Experiments show that applying LRConv only to the final decoder stage cuts decoder complexity by 68% and model size by 9.3% with negligible quality loss, while INT8 quantization preserves performance close to the dense baseline.
