This National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) Project Grant award of $274,623 to Ai Acuity, a for-profit organization, aims to develop improved image compression technology that targets machine learning-based detection algorithms. The key objective is to reduce the size of Earth observation imagery, thereby lowering the costs associated with transmission, storage, and processing. This technology will also have applications in high-efficiency video compression for video calls, remote work, and metaverse technologies that rely on streaming video over limited or variable bandwidth. The proposed research will develop a compression network that maximizes the detection accuracy of downstream, machine learning-based object detectors, in contrast to current compression algorithms that treat the entire image equally. The technology is expected to produce images compatible with standard file formats like PNG and JPEG, while enabling fast compression through modified architectures, quantization, pruning, and parallelization using graphics processing units.
