Researchers have developed a novel method to enhance lossy image compression within the JPEG 2000 standard by integrating neural network-assisted lifting steps. These additional steps are designed to reduce residual redundancy and improve image quality at lower resolutions. The approach, which uses compact neural networks with a single set of trained parameters applicable across all decomposition levels and bit-rates, has demonstrated an average bit-rate saving of up to 17.4% while preserving the scalability features of JPEG 2000.
