• Abstract summary: Plenoptic cameras usually sacrifice the spatial resolution of their SAIss to acquire information from different viewpoints. We propose a novel high-order residual network to learn the geometric features hierarchically from the light field for reconstruction. Our approach enables high-quality reconstruction even in challenging regions and outperforms state-of-the-art single image or LF reconstruction methods with both quantitative measurements and visual evaluation.

• Abstract: Plenoptic cameras usually sacrifice the spatial resolution of their SAIs to acquire geometry information from different viewpoints. Several methods have been proposed to mitigate such spatio-angular trade-off, but seldom make use of the structural properties of the light field (LF) data efficiently. In this paper, we propose a novel high-order residual network to learn the geometric features hierarchically from the LF for reconstruction. An important component in the proposed network is the high-order residual block (HRB), which learns the local geometric features by considering the information from all input views. After fully obtaining the local features learned from each HRB, our model extracts the representative geometric features for spatio-angular upsampling through the global residual learning. Additionally, a refinement network is followed to further enhance the spatial details by minimizing a perceptual loss. Compared with previous work, our model is tailored to the rich structure inherent in the LF, and therefore can reduce the artifacts near non-Lambertian and occlusion regions. Experimental results show that our approach enables high-quality reconstruction even in challenging regions and outperforms state-of-the-art single image or LF reconstruction methods with both quantitative measurements and visual evaluation.

  We propose a novel sparse view reconstruction framework that leverages on-surface priors to achieve highly faithful surface reconstruction. Specifically, we design several constraints on global geometry alignment and local geometry refinement for jointly optimizing coarse shapes and fine details. The experimental results with DTU and BlendedMVS datasets in two prevalent sparse settings demonstrate significant improvements over the state-of-the-art methods.

  State-of-the-art neural implicit methods allow for high-quality reconstructions of simple scenes from many input views. This is caused primarily by the inherent ambiguity in the RGB reconstruction loss that does not provide enough constraints. Motivated by recent advances in the area of monocular geometry prediction, we explore the utility these cues provide for improving neural implicit surface reconstruction.

  Light field (LF) images acquired by hand-held devices usually suffer from low spatial resolution.

We propose a novel learning-based LF framework, in which each view of an LF image is first individually super-resolved.

In each unit, we employ spatial and temporal separable 3D convolution to extract spatial and spectral information, which not only reduces unaffordable memory usage and high computational cost, but also makes the network easier to train.
