• Authors: Yitong Xia, Hao Tang, Radu Timofte, Luc Van Gool
• Abstract summary: NeRFmm is the Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) that deal with Joint Optimization tasks. Despite NeRFmm producing precise scene synthesis and pose estimations, it still struggles to outperform the full-annotated baseline on challenging scenes. We propose Sinusoidal Neural Radiance Fields (SiNeRF) that leverage sinusoidal activations for radiance mapping and a novel Mixed Region Sampling (MRS) for selecting ray batch efficiently.

• Abstract: NeRFmm is the Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) that deal with Joint Optimization tasks, i.e., reconstructing real-world scenes and registering camera parameters simultaneously. Despite NeRFmm producing precise scene synthesis and pose estimations, it still struggles to outperform the full-annotated baseline on challenging scenes. In this work, we identify that there exists a systematic sub-optimality in joint optimization and further identify multiple potential sources for it. To diminish the impacts of potential sources, we propose Sinusoidal Neural Radiance Fields (SiNeRF) that leverage sinusoidal activations for radiance mapping and a novel Mixed Region Sampling (MRS) for selecting ray batch efficiently. Quantitative and qualitative results show that compared to NeRFmm, SiNeRF achieves comprehensive significant improvements in image synthesis quality and pose estimation accuracy.

  Neural radiance fields (NeRF) methods have demonstrated impressive novel view synthesis. In this work we address a clear limitation of the vanilla coarse-to-fine approach -- that it is based on a performance and not trained end-to-end for the task at hand. We introduce a differentiable module that learns to propose samples and their importance for the fine network, and consider and compare multiple alternatives for its neural architecture.

  We propose Bundle-Adjusting Neural Radiance Fields (BARF) for training NeRF from imperfect camera poses. BARF can effectively optimize the neural scene representations and resolve large camera pose misalignment at the same time. This enables view synthesis and localization of video sequences from unknown camera poses, opening up new avenues for visual localization systems.
