• Abstract summary: We propose a method termed Helix-shaped neural implicit Surface learning or HelixSurf. HelixSurf uses the intermediate prediction from one strategy as the guidance to regularize the learning of the other one. Experiments on surface reconstruction of indoor scenes show that our method compares favorably with existing methods.

• Abstract: Recovery of an underlying scene geometry from multiview images stands as a long-time challenge in computer vision research. The recent promise leverages neural implicit surface learning and differentiable volume rendering, and achieves both the recovery of scene geometry and synthesis of novel views, where deep priors of neural models are used as an inductive smoothness bias. While promising for object-level surfaces, these methods suffer when coping with complex scene surfaces. In the meanwhile, traditional multi-view stereo can recover the geometry of scenes with rich textures, by globally optimizing the local, pixel-wise correspondences across multiple views. We are thus motivated to make use of the complementary benefits from the two strategies, and propose a method termed Helix-shaped neural implicit Surface learning or HelixSurf; HelixSurf uses the intermediate prediction from one strategy as the guidance to regularize the learning of the other one, and conducts such intertwined regularization iteratively during the learning process. We also propose an efficient scheme for differentiable volume rendering in HelixSurf. Experiments on surface reconstruction of indoor scenes show that our method compares favorably with existing methods and is orders of magnitude faster, even when some of existing methods are assisted with auxiliary training data.

  Methods for neural surface representation and rendering, for example NeuS, have shown that learning neural implicit surfaces through volume rendering is becoming increasingly popular. Existing methods lack a direct representation of depth information, which makes object reconstruction unrestricted by geometric features. This is because existing methods only use surface normals to represent implicit surfaces without using depth information. We propose a neural implicit surface learning method called Depth-NeuS based on depth information optimization for multi-view reconstruction.
