Research Type Experimental We evaluate our generalized models by calculating the rate distortion (RD) performance averaged over the publicly available Kodak image set [21]2. Figure 2 shows RD curves using peak signalto-noise ratio (PSNR) as the image quality metric. [...] The combined model yields state-of-the-art rate distortion performance and generates smaller files than existing methods: 15.8% rate reductions over the baseline hierarchical model and 59.8%, 35%, and 8.4% savings over JPEG, JPEG2000, and BPG, respectively.

Pseudocode No The paper does not contain any pseudocode blocks or sections explicitly labeled 'Algorithm'.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide an explicit statement about making its source code publicly available or include any links to a code repository.
Open Datasets Yes We evaluate our generalized models by calculating the rate distortion (RD) performance averaged over the publicly available Kodak image set [21]2.
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions training and evaluating on datasets, but it does not specify explicit percentages or counts for training, validation, and test splits needed for reproduction.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not specify any details about the hardware (e.g., GPU models, CPU specifications, memory) used to run the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not list any specific software dependencies with version numbers (e.g., Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch versions, or specific libraries).
Experiment Setup Yes Details about the individual network layers in each component of our models are outlined in Table 1. [...] Optimized with λ = 0.025 (bpp 0.61 on Kodak), the baseline outperforms the other variants we tested (see text for details).
