Abstract

Increasingly massive image data is restricted by conditions such as information transmission and reconstruction, and it is increasingly difficult to meet the requirements of speed and integrity in the information age. To solve the urgent problems faced by massive image data in information transmission, this paper proposes a high-quality image compression algorithm based on unsupervised learning. Among them, a content-weighted autoencoder network is proposed to achieve image compression coding on the basis of a smaller bit rate to solve the entropy rate optimization problem. Binary quantizers are used for coding quantization, and importance maps are used to achieve better bit allocation. The compression rate is further controlled and optimized. A multi-scale discriminator suitable for the generative adversarial network image compression framework is designed to solve the problem that the generated compressed image is prone to blurring and distortion. Finally, through training with different weights, the distortion of each scale is minimized, so that the image compression can achieve a higher quality compression and reconstruction effect. The experimental results show that the algorithm model can save the details of the image and greatly compress the memory of the image. Its advantage is that it can expand and compress a large number of images quickly and efficiently and realize the efficient processing of image compression.
