NNTC viewing example which uses VK_NV_cooperative_vector

›
The NNTC Vulkan sample is working (3000+ lines of .cpp later). It supports VK_NV_cooperative_vector for decoding. So the same inference ha...

Notes on NNTC vs. neural texturing

›
NNTC ( here on GitHub ) uses a bilinear/degree-2 polynomial decoder fitted to each PBR material (i.e. a degree-2 polynomial whose only quadr...

Neural texture decoders can suppress DCT ringing artifacts within latent features

›
This is mirrored from my X post . This is very image codec specific: Normally a DCT-based (JPEG style) codec has mosquito/ringing noise espe...
