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

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

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.

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.

Compression Trinity: Exploring Sparsity, Quantization, and Low-Rank Approximations for LLM Compression

The paper introduces the "Compression Trinity," a unified framework that jointly applies sparsity, quantization, and low‑rank approximations to compress large language models. It presents several methods—MKOR, SLoPe, OPTIMA, PATCH, and SLiM—that leverage these three pillars to accelerate training, reduce memory bandwidth, and recover accuracy, achieving significant speedups and accuracy gains over existing techniques. The results demonstrate that combining all three compression strategies is essential for efficient, scalable, high‑performance LLM deployment.
