Scalable image coding for both humans and machines is a technique that has gained a lot of attention recently.
This technology enables the hierarchical decoding of images for human vision and image recognition models.
It is a highly effective method when images need to serve both purposes.
However, no research has yet incorporated the post-processing commonly used in popular image compression schemes into scalable image coding method for humans and machines.
In this paper, we propose a method to enhance the quality of decoded images for humans by integrating post-processing into scalable coding scheme.
Experimental results show that the post-processing improves compression performance.
Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through comparisons with traditional methods.
