Abstract: In this work, we propose a Wavelet-based Deep Auto Encoder-Decoder Network (WDAED) based image compression which takes care of the various frequency components present in an image.

We propose an encoder-decoder for open-vocabulary semantic segmentation comprising a hierarchical encoder-based cost map generation and a gradual fusion decoder. We introduce a category early ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...
