High-Frequency First: A Two-Stage Approach for Improving Image INR

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper proposes a two-stage training strategy for Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) that addresses spectral bias by using a neighbor-aware soft mask to emphasize high-frequency details early in training. In the first stage, the mask assigns higher weights to pixels with strong local variations, encouraging the network to focus on fine edges and textures. The second stage transitions to full-image training, and experiments show consistent improvements in reconstruction quality across existing INR methods.

MG-SpaIR: Multi-grade Sparse-guided Implicit Representation for Training-Data-Free Image Restoration

MG-SpaIR is a training-data-free framework for restoring a clean image from a single observation corrupted by a mixture of blur, downsampling, noise, and missing pixels. Building on implicit neural representations (INRs), we introduce a multi-grade coarse-to-fine residual hierarchy that progressively refines the reconstruction across resolution grades, improving representational fidelity and mitigating spectral limitations.

Balancing Frequencies and Pixels in Flow Matching

The paper introduces a Focal Log-Frequency Loss (f-loss) to counteract the spectral imbalance in pixel-space flow matching, where low frequencies dominate training. By balancing learning signals across frequencies and combining early frequency-domain supervision with later pixel-space refinement, the method accelerates convergence by up to 40% and improves FID and perceptual fidelity across multiple model scales. It requires no architectural changes and can replace existing flow matching losses as a drop‑in solution.
