Researchers have developed Proteus, a novel compression model specifically designed for LiDAR point clouds. This model employs a unique strategy of separating the significant bit-planes (SIG) from the insignificant ones (INS) to ensure robustness against data truncation. The SIG block provides a fundamental perceptual lower bound, while the INS block progressively reconstructs details, allowing the system to tolerate up to approximately 70% bitstream truncation. Proteus outperforms existing standards like G-PCC, Draco, and JPEG XL, as well as the learned compressor Unicorn, in various compression scenarios. AI
