Predictive Coding beyond Correlations [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Recently, there has been extensive research on the capabilities of biologically plausible algorithms. In this work, we show how one of such algorithms, called predictive coding, is able to perform causal inference tasks. First, we show how a simple change in the inference process of predictive coding enables to compute interventions without the need to

Gauge field smearing and controlled continuum extrapolations [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Two popular methods to reduce discretisation effects are Symanzik improvement and gauge field smearing in the Dirac operator. Tree-level $O(a^2)$-improved Wilson fermions can be obtained from $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermions by adding one dimension-6 operator to the action. For gauge field smearing one wants to avoid the situation when too much smearing

SDNet: mutil-branch for single image deraining using swin [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Rain streaks degrade the image quality and seriously affect the performance of subsequent computer vision tasks, such as autonomous driving, social security, etc. Therefore, removing rain streaks from a given rainy images is of great significance. Convolutional neural networks(CNN) have been widely used in image deraining tasks, however, the local ...
