Improved compression of Bad Apple into a Neural Network [P]
Recent experimentation with SIREN networks has yielded significant improvements in compressing the "Bad Apple" video. By employing a novel batch generation technique that incorporates pixels across the entire video, we’ve achieved a more faithful reproduction while maintaining the original model architecture—4 x 512 wide sine layers totaling 792,257 parameters. While a full framerate version proved challenging due to increased temporal data demands, the low-rate version demonstrates compelling compression capabilities. This reimplementation, built using GPT5.
