Merged feat/v3 into master.
Please let me know here if there are issues with this release.
Sorry for cross-posting but https://github.com/caoscott/SReC/issues/6 has addressed that there are newer image formats like AVIF, HEIF and JPEG-XL (JXL).
For other specific training sets, maybe https://github.com/caoscott/SReC/issues/5 can provide some tests for specific niches
Previously, our preprocessing script saved all training images and validation images as JPGs with a high quality factor of Q=95, downscaled by a factor 0.75. It turns out that the resulting images have a specific enough distribution that the neural network picks up on it, and the images are also easier to compress for the non-learned codecs.
For correctness, we have thus re-created the training and validation sets. The new preprocessing script is available in the repo. The important differences are:
This causes all results to shift, however, as before, we still outperform WebP, JPEG-2000, and PNG, i.e. the ordering of the methods according to bpp remains unchanged.
We evaluated our model on 500 images randomly selected from the Open Images validation set, and preprocessed like the training data. To compare, please download Open Images evaluation set here.
