In this digest (10 items)

Neural block texture compression is a technique used to reduce the size of neural network models while maintaining their performance. This article discusses the improvements made to neural block texture compression in recent times.

Key points

  • Neural block texture: compression uses a combination of 2-bit high-resolution latent and 4-channel 1/8 size latent to achieve a compression ratio of 2.5 bpp.

  • The model uses 1: , 056 MLP weights and has a bilinear filtered output.

  • The compression ratio: has improved significantly compared to previous versions.
