The authors introduce learnable spectral activations (LSA), which replace fixed nonlinearities in implicit neural representations (INRs) with a layer-wise truncated Fourier series whose harmonic amplitudes are learned alongside network weights.

The authors designed learnable spectral activations (LSA) for implicit neural representations (INRs).
