"Deep Generative models and Inverse Problems", by Alex Dimakis

Deep Generative models and Inverse Problems, 16 June,Ìý18:00 through MS TeamsÌý, by ÌýProfessor ofÌýElectrical and Computer Engineering Department,ÌýUniversity of Texas at Austin, USA

Modern deep generative models like GANs, VAEs and invertible flows are demonstratingÌýexcellent performance in representing high-dimensional distributions, especially for images.ÌýWe will show how they can be used to solve inverse problems like denoising, filling missingÌýdata, and medical imaging. We generalize compressed sensing theory beyond sparsity, extendingÌýRestricted Isometries to sets created by deep generative models. We will present the generalÌýframework, recent results and open problems in this space.
