Next-Frame Decoding for Ultra-Low-Bitrate Image Compression with Video Diffusion Priors
arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2603.15129v1 Announce Type: new We present a novel paradigm for ultra-low-bitrate image compression (ULB-IC) that exploits the ``temporal'' evolution in generative image compression. Specifically, we define an explicit intermediate state during decoding: a compact anchor frame, which preserves the scene geometry and semantic layout while discarding high-frequency details. We then reinterpret generative decoding as a virtual temporal transition from this anchor to the final reconstructed image.
