Methods and systems for enabling object attribute driven super resolution encoding

A system for encoding high resolution data associated with a relatively large number of bits to an encoded form having a relatively reduced number of bits, the system comprising:

• a processing device;
• and
• a non-transitory, computer-readable memory containing programming instructions that are configured to cause the processing device to:
• receive an input image comprising one or more high resolution objects;
• and
• for each of the one or more high resolution objects:
• identify an object family for that object,
• determine whether a reference table exists for the object family,
• upon determining that the reference table exists for the object family:
• determine a size of that object, and
• identify a first tag, based on the size, using the reference table,
• upon determining that the reference table does not exist for the object family:
• determine a ratio of a size of a foreground region of that object to a size of a background region of that object, and
• identify a second tag based on the ratio,
• encode that object to form an encoded object having a relatively reduced number of bits,
• associate the first tag or the second tag with the encoded object, and
• save the encoded object.

A method for encoding high resolution data associated with a relatively large number of bits to an encoded form having a relatively reduced number of bits, the method comprising, by a processor:

• receiving an input image comprising one or more high resolution objects;
• and
• for each of the one or more high resolution objects:
• identifying an object family for that object,
• determining whether a reference table exists for the object family, wherein the reference table comprises a plurality of object size ranges and corresponding tags for the object size ranges,
• upon determining that the reference table exists for the object family:
• determining a size of that object, and
• identifying a tag, based on the size, using the reference table,
• encoding that object to form an encoded object having a relatively reduced number of bits,
• associating the identified tag with the encoded object, and
• saving the encoded object.
