Learned image compression (LIC) increasingly requires reconstructions that balance distortion fidelity and perceptual realism across a wide range of bitrates. However, most existing methods still rely on a single compressed latent representation to simultaneously carry structural details, semantic cues, and perceptual priors, requiring the same latent representation to serve multiple, potentially conflicting roles. This tension becomes evident across different latent paradigms: scalar-quantized (SQ) continuous latents provide rate-scalable fidelity but tend to lose perceptual details at low rates, while vector-quantized (VQ) discrete tokens preserve compact semantic cues but suffer from limited structural fidelity and bitrate scalability. To address this issue, we propose Mixture of Decoder Experts (MoDE), a dual-latent collaborative decoding framework that decomposes reconstruction responsibilities across complementary latent paradigms. Specifically, MoDE treats the SQ branch as a fidelity-oriented expert and the VQ branch as a perception-oriented expert, and coordinates them through two decoder-side modules: Expert-Specific Enhancement (ESE), which preserves branch-specific expert references, and Cross-Expert Modulation (CEM), which enables selective complementary transfer during reconstruction. The resulting framework supports selective cross-latent collaboration under a shared dual-stream bitstream and enables both fidelity-anchored and perception-anchored decoding. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MoDE achieves a more favorable fidelity-perception balance than representative distortion-oriented, perception-oriented, generative, and dual-latent baselines across a wide bitrate range, highlighting decoder-side expert collaboration as an effective design for wide-range fidelity-perception balanced LIC.
