DeepRTE: Pre-trained Attention-based Neural Network for Radiative Tranfer

In this study, we propose a novel neural network approach, termed DeepRTE, to address the steady-state Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE). The RTE is a differential-integral equation that governs the propagation of radiation through a participating medium, with applications spanning diverse domains such as neutron transport, atmospheric radiative transfer, heat transfer, and optical imaging. Our proposed DeepRTE framework leverages pre-trained attention-based neural networks to solve the RTE with high accuracy and computational efficiency. The efficacy of the proposed approach is substantiated through comprehensive numerical experiments.

Force-in-domain GAN inversion

Empirical works suggest that various semantics emerge in the latent space of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) when being trained to generate images. To perform real image editing, it requires an accurate mapping from the real image to the latent space to leveraging these learned semantics, which is important yet difficult. An in-domain GAN inversion approach is recently proposed to constraint the inverted code within the latent space by forcing the reconstructed image obtained from the inverted code within the real image space. Empirically, we find that the inverted code by the in-domain GAN can deviate from the latent space significantly. To solve this problem, we propose a force-in-domain GAN based on the in-domain GAN, which utilizes a discriminator to force the inverted code within the latent space. The force-in-domain GAN can also be interpreted by a cycle-GAN with slight modification. Extensive experiments show that our force-in-domain GAN not only reconstructs the target image at the pixel level, but also align the inverted code with the latent space well for semantic editing.
