PLVC

Description

PLVC (Perceptual Learned Video Compression) is a deep learning-based video compression approach that employs a recurrent conditional GAN. It focuses on achieving high perceptual quality at low bitrates, outperforming traditional codecs like HEVC in user studies and perceptual quality metrics.
