Do we need a decoder to parse the hific image?

Yes, images are encoded in .hific format - to decode this back to an image you need to first:

Decode the bitstream to the latent representation using a standard entropy (here we use ANS).
Pass the latent representation through the NN decoder/generator - this is the bottleneck.

Using compress.py will do both for you automatically provided you pass in the right flags. Check the usage guide for more info about this.
