将高比特医学体数据分段压缩,提升效率与速度。

Learning Lossless Compression for High Bit-Depth Volumetric Medical Image

  • 分两段处理:关键结构用传统编码,细节用Transformer模型压缩
  • 在多个数据集上达到新基准,速度仍保持竞争力
  • 适合需要高效保存高精度医学影像的研究者

基于学习的方法虽显著提升了图像压缩能力,但在高比特深度体医学图像上仍面临性能下降、内存需求增加和处理速度降低等问题。为此,本文提出针对高比特深度医学体数据压缩的位分段无损体图像压缩(BD-LVIC)框架。该框架将高比特深度体数据分为两个较低比特深度部分:最高有效位体(MSBV)和最低有效位体(LSBV)。MSBV聚焦于体医学图像的最高有效位,以紧凑方式捕捉关键结构信息,大幅降低复杂度并提升传统编码器的压缩效率;而LSBV则处理最低有效位,包含细微纹理细节。为此,我们引入一种基于Transformer的特征对齐模块,利用片内与片间冗余实现特征精准对齐,并通过并行自回归编码模块融合特征,精确估计最低有效位平面的概率分布。大量实验表明,BD-LVIC框架不仅在多个数据集上创下新性能基准,且保持了具有竞争力的编码速度,展现出在体医学图像压缩领域的重要潜力与实际应用价值。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Recent advances in learning-based methods have markedly enhanced the capabilities of image compression. However, these methods struggle with high bit-depth volumetric medical images, facing issues such as degraded performance, increased memory demand, and reduced processing speed. To address these challenges, this paper presents the Bit-Division based Lossless Volumetric Image Compression (BD-LVIC) framework, which is tailored for high bit-depth medical volume compression. The BD-LVIC framework skillfully divides the high bit-depth volume into two lower bit-depth segments: the Most Significant Bit-Volume (MSBV) and the Least Significant Bit-Volume (LSBV). The MSBV concentrates on the most significant bits of the volumetric medical image, capturing vital structural details in a compact manner. This reduction in complexity greatly improves compression efficiency using traditional codecs. Conversely, the LSBV deals with the least significant bits, which encapsulate intricate texture details. To compress this detailed information effectively, we introduce an effective learning-based compression model equipped with a Transformer-Based Feature Alignment Module, which exploits both intra-slice and inter-slice redundancies to accurately align features. Subsequently, a Parallel Autoregressive Coding Module merges these features to precisely estimate the probability distribution of the least significant bit-planes. Our extensive testing demonstrates that the BD-LVIC framework not only sets new performance benchmarks across various datasets but also maintains a competitive coding speed, highlighting its significant potential and practical utility in the realm of volumetric medical image compression.
