Maximising the difference between multiple distributions

SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on developing a parent loss function for a neural network model that utilizes the quad-tree compression algorithm to process images. The goal is to maximize the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence between segments identified by the quad-tree algorithm, which divides images into smaller squares until uniform pixel values are achieved. The approach involves iteratively de-resolving the image to find new segments while emphasizing segments at higher resolutions, with separate considerations for each RGB channel. The outcome aims to enhance the model's performance in image processing tasks.

I am trying to come up with a parent loss function for the following neural network model. On top of that the algorithm for processing an image would also be helpful.

The quad-tree compression algorithm divides an image into ever increasingly small segments (squares) and stops in a particular region when all the pixels are the same value.

I would like a situation where I map a noise vector directly to an image. On top of that , the loss function will maximize the distance(KL) between the segments found using the quad-tree algorithm on the image.

This is involved because we have to alliteratively de-resolve slightly the image and find the new segments after that . Then to maximize the distance between all these segments at the same time. Perhaps with a bias towards the segments found at the highest resolution.

Another consideration is that this happens for each channel in the RGB channels.

Thankyou!
If this gets to a paper i will mention contributors :)

So there will be a loss function for each image in the training set, and we process the image with the quadtree algorithm before in order to get its parameters.
