representation

Modeling complex 3D scenes at infinite resolution(Photo by Alexandra Gorn on Unsplash)We have seen recently (e.g., with DeepSDF and ONets ) how 3D geometries can be represented with a neural net. But, these approaches have some limitations, such as requiring access to ground truth, 3D geometries for training and inference. Plus, what if we want to represent an entire scene and not just an object or geometry? This requires modeling both geometry and appearance; see below for an example. Luckily, neural nets are more than…

Let’s dive deep into signal representation, Fourier transform, spectra and harmonics.Photo by Richard Horvath on UnsplashThis article is part of a series:IntroductionBefore going deeper into the speech enhancement rabbit hole, we really need to make clear some concepts about digital signal processing. In the previous chapter of this series, we introduced some concepts and added links to further readings.In this second part, we are going to explore how digital signals are represented, how to change representation, and why…

Given an array of integer nums and a positive integer K, the task is to find the maximum number of integers that can be selected from the array such that the sum of the number of 1s in their binary representation is at most K.Examples:Input: nums = , K = 3Output: 2Explanation: The maximum number of integers that can be selected is 2 since the sum of the number of 1s in the binary representation of 3 and 4 is 3, which is equal to K.Input: nums = , K = 5Output: 4Explanation: The maximum number of integers that can be…

You can be as talented as Marlon Brando or Ingrid Bergman, you can write like William Shakespeare or Arthur Miller, you can have the screen presence of Ryan Gosling or Jennifer Lawrence. But if you look Latino, or if you have a Latino last name, the odds are against you in Hollywood.And by Latino, I mean born in Latin America. Not Spain, nor anywhere else in Europe. Those are white peoples. We Latinos are 19% of the population and the largest ethnic group in America, and we’ve been here long before the conquests of the…

Twenty-nine years ago, Jonathan Demme’s film Philadelphia was hailed as something of a Hollywood milestone: a major studio film about homosexuality and Aids, with a gay male protagonist who was both sympathetic and HIV+. Its breakthroughs were, however, all couched in compromise, steering the film cautiously toward a straight audience.Director Jonathan Demme was straight; so was Tom Hanks, a canny choice for the lead. That he was straight was a given, since the film needed an A-list star to sell itself to the public, and…

Nury Martinez resigned from the Los Angeles City Council on Wednesday, days after The Times published a story in which Martinez and three other prominent Latinx political figures were caught in a leaked audio recording making racist, homophobic and other derogatory comments.The contents of the leaked audio are in no uncertain terms reprehensible and condemnable. Chief among them are attacks on a Black child — Martinez refers to Councilmember Mike Bonin’s adopted son as a “changuito” and even jokes about beating…

Malala Yousafzai has called out Hollywood for its lack of Muslim and Asian representation.During her speech at Variety’s Power of Women event, the 25-year-old Nobel Peace Prize laureate said that Muslim actors only make up one per cent of popular television series leads.“I learned that Asian people like me make up less than four per cent of leads in Hollywood films,” she said. “Muslims are 25 per cent of the population, but only one per cent of characters in popular TV series.“I know that the executives have passed on…

KTLA-TV Channel 5 is defending its handling of the departure of two popular anchors amid calls by viewers to boycott the station and criticism that station executives have been insensitive to concerns about a shortage of Latinos on air.For nearly two weeks, KTLA has endured a backlash from angry viewers over the exit of Lynette Romero — the station’s most prominent Latina — and her co-anchor on weekend morning shows, Mark Mester. He was fired last Thursday after an emotional on-air appeal, accusing his bosses of cruel…
