HiFiC360: High-Fidelity Compression for 360° Images

360° images, defined on a sphere, are widely used in immersive applications, but their equirectangular projection introduces distortions, especially near the poles, while the equatorial region is most perceptually important. This paper adapts the HiFiC model to ${360}^{{\circ}}$ imagery through three changes: (i) repla...
