Extreme Generative Image Compression by Learning Text Embedding from Diffusion Models

no code implementations14 Nov 2022 Zhihong Pan, Xin Zhou, Hao Tian

With the recent success of diffusion models for text-to-image generation, we propose a generative image compression method that demonstrates the potential of saving an image as a short text embedding which in turn can be used to generate high-fidelity images which is equivalent to the original one perceptually.
