Image Compression Network Structure Based on Multiscale Region of Interest Attention Network

In this study, we proposed a region of interest (ROI) compression algorithm under the deep learning self-encoder framework to improve the reconstruction performance of the image and reduce the distortion of the ROI. First, we adopted a remote sensing image cloud detection algorithm for detecting important targets in images, that is, separating the remote sensing background from important regions in remote sensing images and then determining the target regions because most traditional ROI-based image compression algorithms utilize the manual labeling of the ROI to achieve region separation in images. We designed a multiscale ROI self-coding network from coarse to fine with a hierarchical super priority layer to synthesize images to reduce the spatial redundancy more effectively, thus greatly improving the distortion rate performance of image compression. By using a spatial attention mechanism for the ROI in the image compression network, we achieved better compression performance.
