Proposes training learned image compression models with explicit input-space noise injection as a regularizer, rather than only the latent uniform-noise proxy used today.

Problem

Learned image compression is trained almost exclusively on clean images, with the only stochastic perturbation being an additive uniform latent proxy used to keep the entropy model differentiable.

Approach

Adds noise in the input (image) domain during LIC training as a regularizer, motivated by the success of noise-based regularization (Tikhonov, contractive autoencoders, denoising score matching, diffusion) in other settings.

Experimental setup

Builds on: Tikhonov regularization denoising score matching contractive autoencoders
