Understanding Implicit Neural Representations with Itzik Ben-Shabat

Computer Vision Decoded

In this episode of Computer Vision Decoded, we are going to dive into implicit neural representations.

We are joined by Itzik Ben-Shabat, a Visiting Research Fellow at the Australian National Universit (ANU) and Technion – Israel Institute of Technology as well as the host of the Talking Paper Podcast.

You will learn a core understanding of implicit neural representations, key concepts and terminology, how it's being used in applications today, and Itzik's research into improving output with limit input data.
