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.

The paper introduces MIRC, an overfitted image codec that quantizes all components—including latents, synthesis network, and entropy models—within a single rate‑distortion objective, following the neural video representation codec NVRC. It adds a multi‑scale representation with cross‑stage parameter sharing to capture cross‑scale redundancy, achieving a 10.5% BD‑rate saving over VVC on the CLIC2020 professional validation set. MIRC also offers configurable decoding complexity ranging from 1.2 to 2.9 kMAC per pixel, allowing deployment to match specific resource budgets.

APEX (Asynchronous Prefix denoising for EXtreme compression) introduces a hierarchical latent space paired with asynchronous denoising over channel groups, enabling efficient extreme compression of images. The method orders channel prefixes from structure to detail, allowing a shared denoiser to generate them at staggered local times without adding tokens. On ImageNet-512, APEX outperforms existing methods at every evaluated channel count under 64x and 128x compression, and surpasses a 256-token model across all budgets when matched for training and guided sampling compute, especially at lower compute levels.

arXiv:2607. 14898v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-time video generation demands fast decoding as much as fast denoising, yet current latent video diffusion models rely on 3D convolutional decoders that are slow and memory-intensive at high resolutions or for long video.
