• Abstract: We present Stable View Synthesis (SVS). Given a set of source images depicting a scene from freely distributed viewpoints, SVS synthesizes new views of the scene. The method operates on a geometric scaffold computed via structure-from-motion and multi-view stereo. Each point on this 3D scaffold is associated with view rays and corresponding feature vectors that encode the appearance of this point in the input images. The core of SVS is view-dependent on-surface feature aggregation, in which directional feature vectors at each 3D point are processed to produce a new feature vector for a ray that maps this point into the new target view. The target view is then rendered by a convolutional network from a tensor of features synthesized in this way for all pixels. The method is composed of differentiable modules and is trained end-to-end. It supports spatially-varying view-dependent importance weighting and feature transformation of source images at each point; spatial and temporal stability due to the smooth dependence of on-surface feature aggregation on the target view; and synthesis of view-dependent effects such as specular reflection. Experimental results demonstrate that SVS outperforms state-of-the-art view synthesis methods both quantitatively and qualitatively on three diverse real-world datasets, achieving unprecedented levels of realism in free-viewpoint video of challenging large-scale scenes.

  FreeSplat is capable of reconstructing geometrically consistent 3D scenes from long sequence input towards free-view synthesis. We propose a simple but effective free-view training strategy that ensures robust view synthesis across broader view range regardless of the number of views.

We use the enhanced features to predict the geometric occupancies and semantic labels of all voxels. We evaluate CVSformer on public datasets, where CVSformer yields state-of-the-art results.

  We propose to leverage both the global and local features to form an expressive 3D representation. To synthesize a novel view, we train a multilayer perceptron (MLP) network conditioned on the learned 3D representation to perform volume rendering. Our method can render novel views from only a single input image and generalize across multiple object categories using a single model.

Our main contribution is a learning framework, neural view synthesis and matching, that can transfer the 3D pose annotation from the labelled to unlabelled images reliably.

  Conventional rendering methods estimate scene geometry and synthesize novel views in two separate steps. We propose an end-to-end NVS framework to eliminate the error propagation issue. Our network is trained in an end-to-end self-supervised fashion, thus significantly alleviating error accumulation in view synthesis.

  This paper targets on learning-based novel view synthesis from a single or limited 2D images without the pose supervision. We construct an end-to-end trainable conditional variational framework to disentangle the unsupervisely learned relative-pose/rotation and implicit global 3D representation. Our system can achieve implicitly 3D understanding without explicitly 3D reconstruction.
