• Abstract: Sinusoidal neural networks have been shown effective as implicit neural representations (INRs) of low-dimensional signals, due to their smoothness and high representation capacity. However, initializing and training them remain empirical tasks which lack on deeper understanding to guide the learning process. To fill this gap, our work introduces a theoretical framework that explains the capacity property of sinusoidal networks and offers robust control mechanisms for initialization and training. Our analysis is based on a novel amplitude-phase expansion of the sinusoidal multilayer perceptron, showing how its layer compositions produce a large number of new frequencies expressed as integer combinations of the input frequencies. This relationship can be directly used to initialize the input neurons, as a form of spectral sampling, and to bound the network's spectrum while training. Our method, referred to as TUNER (TUNing sinusoidal nEtwoRks), greatly improves the stability and convergence of sinusoidal INR training, leading to detailed reconstructions, while preventing overfitting.

  Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have recently gained attention as a powerful approach for continuously representing signals such as images, videos, and 3D shapes using multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) Low-frequency details are known to exhibit a low-frequency bias, limiting their ability to capture high-frequency details accurately. We propose frequency shifting (or FreSh) to align the frequency spectrum of the initial output with that of the target signal.

  Despite the capacity of neural nets to learn arbitrary functions, models trained through gradient descent often exhibit a bias towards simpler'' functions. We show how this spectral bias towards low-degree frequencies can in fact hurt the neural network's generalization on real-world datasets. We propose a new scalable functional regularization scheme that aids the neural network to learn higher degree frequencies.

Inspired by such studies, we conduct a spectral analysis of the Tangent Kernel (NTK) of PNNs. We find that the $Pi$-Net family, i.e., a recently proposed parametrization of PNNs, speeds up the
