"Deep Generative models and Inverse Problems", by Alex Dimakis
Deep Generative models and Inverse Problems, 16 June,18:00 through MS Teams, by Professor ofElectrical and Computer Engineering Department,University of Texas at Austin, USA
Modern deep generative models like GANs, VAEs and invertible flows are demonstratingexcellent performance in representing high-dimensional distributions, especially for images.We will show how they can be used to solve inverse problems like denoising, filling missingdata, and medical imaging. We generalize compressed sensing theory beyond sparsity, extendingRestricted Isometries to sets created by deep generative models. We will present the generalframework, recent results and open problems in this space.
