COMPRESSING CODECS Mobile and video technology development company, Interdigital, has announced CompressAI, a new software for simplifying AI-based video compression research. The solution allows researchers to quickly design, train, test and evaluate AI-based codecs. The open-source platform, recently released to the video compression research and standards communities, is already being used to support the development of next-generation image and video codecs. “Interdigital has developed the CompressAI platform to simplify and speed up the process of deep video compression research, allowing teams to test and evaluate AI-based codecs quickly and accurately. By making our platform publicly available, we hope to be able to support the incredibly important work research teams are doing to bring the next generation of video compression standards,” said Jean Bolot, vice-president of the AI Lab at Interdigital. CompressAI automates a large proportion of the research process of the next generation of image and video codecs, to accelerate the development and evaluation of candidate neural network architectures in deep video compression research.
