Patent ID: 11810331

Abstract:
A method of decoding an image with latent feature-domain intra-prediction is performed by at least one processor and includes receiving a set of latent blocks and for each of the blocks in the set of latent blocks: predicting a block, based on a set of previously recovered blocks; receiving a selection signal indicating a currently recovered block, based on the selection signal performing one of (1) and (2): (1) generating a compact residual, a set of residual context parameters, a decoded residual, and generating a first decoded block; (2) generating a second decoded block, based on a compact representation block and a set of context parameters. The method further includes generating a set of recovered blocks comprising each of the currently recovered blocks; generating a recovered latent image by merging all the blocks in the set of recovered blocks; and decoding the recovered latent image, to obtain a reconstructed image.
