entropy coding？ #1

Thanks for the code! I want to ask how is the entropy coding stage done? I did not understand the entropy coding part of the original paper. I don’t see this part in your code either.

Hi Liu, you can use arithmetic encoding or CABAC implementations available publicly. I did not implement the convolutional entropy encoder mentioned in the paper. I compared my results by calculating the upper limit on the compression rate(bpp) from the importance map.
