Our method, called HDN, employs a hierarchical VAE to learn a latent representation of structures occuring in a noisy body of data. Hence, we can later use the model to sample a space of sensible ādata interpretationsā.
Without any further tricks this leads to SOTA results for removing pixel noises!
(And the sampling discussed above is a super useful bonus feature other methods typically can't offer...)

In the late 90s as a grad student I became interested in the utility of #analytic_philosophy as a language and method of presentation and looked to how other traditions used it - a thread on #Indian_philosophy 1/

How would you teach children to speak?
Of course speaking properly need to be taught.

Doing it online i.e. at scale is the challenge.
