Spectral Gating via Damped Oscillations for Adaptive Implicit Neural Representations

arXiv:2606.23129v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have been proven successful in encoding continuous signals through coordinate-based networks, yet facing a spectral dilemma: periodic activations capture fine details but act as all-pass filters that memorise noise, while spatially compact activations regularise effectively but suffer from low-frequency bias. Existing attempts to resolve this trade-off introduce computational overhead or tuning frailty. We propose to model each neuron's activation as the steady-state response of a sinusoidally-forc
