The short explanation of the DFT that I like the most is that it projects the signal vector on to the vector room with the exponential functions as basis vectors. Then you can see how much of the signal that each basis vector, corresponding

It looks like they use their own dataset and should be able to avoid that kind of information leakage. From their paper: "Our base diffusion model is a re-implementation of the Latent Diffusion Model [42] that has been trained on an in

Personally I don't think NeRFs are an elegant way of representing scenes, I'd prefer something more structured than a blob of weights. But maybe it's still a good intermediary to go from images to the final form, I'm far

My point was that it's not a matter or DirectML or torch, it's simply a choice of backend for torch. It's an easy way of adding AMD support to torch based projects in Windows, there's probably an equally easy way of addi

What do you think Microsoft's medium to long term plan is? Will they clone GPT-x and use their own copy? Will they make their own model and train it from scratch? Will these former OpenAI people start with commercial LLMs like they wer
