GainedVAE

A Pytorch Implementation of a continuously rate adjustable learned image compression framework, Gained Variational Autoencoder(GainedVAE).

Note that It Is Not An Official Implementation Code.

More details can be found in the following paper:

Todo:
Reproduce Implementation of the following paper:

INTERPOLATION VARIABLE RATE IMAGE COMPRESSION
Alibaba Group, arxiv 2021.9.20
Zhenhong Sun, Zhiyu Tan, Xiuyu Sun, Fangyi Zhang, Yichen Qian, Dongyang Li, Hao Li

Environment

  • Python == 3.7.10
  • Pytorch == 1.7.1
  • CompressAI

Dataset

Training set

I use a part of the OpenImages Dataset to train the models (train06, train07, train08, about 54w images). You can download from here. Download OpenImages
Maybe train08 (14w images) is enough.

Test set

Download Kodak dataset

Train Your Own Model

python3 trainGain.py -d /path/to/your/image/dataset/ –epochs 200 -lr 1e-4 –batch-size 16 –model-save /path/to/your/model/save/dir –cuda

Result

I try to train the Gained Mean-Scale Hyperprior model and here is the result.

Acknowledgement

The framework is based on CompressAI, I add the model in compressai.models.gain, compressai.models.gain_utils.
And trainGain/trainGain.py is modified with reference to compressai_examples/train.py.
