Abstract
Although analog semantic communication systems have attracted significant attention recently, there has been relatively less focus on digital semantic communication systems. In this work, we introduce a neural image compression-enabled semantic communication system to enhance the efficiency of digital image transmission, named NCSC. By employing an accurate and adaptable entropy model, NCSC obtains the efficiently compressed bitstreams, which are compatible with digital communication systems. Incorporating with the well-established digital components, our system trained on the MS-SSIM metric can achieve a significant bandwidth compression ratio of 0.002 at low SNR, reducing remarkably transmission overhead. Extensive simulations show that our approach outperforms traditional digital communication systems in terms of perceptual quality and bandwidth efficiency under challenging channel conditions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
