Abstract

It is challenging to design an efficient lossy compression scheme for complicated sources based on block codes, especially to approach the theoretical distortion-rate limit. In this paper, a lossy compression scheme is proposed for Gaussian and Laplacian sources. In this scheme, a new route using "transformation-quantization" was designed to replace the conventional "quantization-compression". The proposed scheme utilizes neural networks for transformation and lossy protograph low-density parity-check codes for quantization. To ensure the system's feasibility, some problems existing in the neural networks were resolved, including parameter updating and the propagation optimization. Simulation results demonstrated good distortion-rate performance.
