• Title: ContraNeRF: 3D-Aware Generative Model via Contrastive Learning with Unsupervised Implicit Pose Embedding
• Authors: Mijeong Kim, Hyunjoon Lee, Bohyung Han
• Abstract summary: We propose a novel 3D-aware GAN optimization technique through contrastive learning with implicit pose embeddings. We make the discriminator estimate a high-dimensional implicit pose embedding from a given image and perform contrastive learning on the pose embedding. The proposed approach can be employed for the dataset, where the canonical camera pose is ill-defined because it does not look up or estimate camera poses.

• Abstract: Although 3D-aware GANs based on neural radiance fields have achieved competitive performance, their applicability is still limited to objects or scenes with the ground-truths or prediction models for clearly defined canonical camera poses. To extend the scope of applicable datasets, we propose a novel 3D-aware GAN optimization technique through contrastive learning with implicit pose embeddings. To this end, we first revise the discriminator design and remove dependency on ground-truth camera poses. Then, to capture complex and challenging 3D scene structures more effectively, we make the discriminator estimate a high-dimensional implicit pose embedding from a given image and perform contrastive learning on the pose embedding. The proposed approach can be employed for the dataset, where the canonical camera pose is ill-defined because it does not look up or estimate camera poses. Experimental results show that our algorithm outperforms existing methods by large margins on the datasets with multiple object categories and inconsistent canonical camera poses.

  We propose to learn a category-level 3D object pose estimator without pose annotations. Instead of using manually annotated images, we leverage diffusion models to generate a set of images under controlled pose differences. We show that our method has the capability of category-level object pose estimation from a single shot setting.

  Estimating camera poses is a fundamental task for 3D reconstruction and remains challenging given sparsely sampled views. We propose a distributed representation of camera pose that treats a camera as a bundle of rays. Our proposed methods, both regression- and diffusion-based, demonstrate state-of-the-art performance on camera pose estimation on CO3D.

  This work explores reconstructing general real-world objects from a few images without known camera poses or object categories. The crux of our work is solving two fundamental 3D vision problems -- shape reconstruction and pose estimation. Our method FORGE predicts 3D features from each view and leverages them in conjunction with the input images to establish cross-view correspondence.

  Deep Bingham Networks (DBN) can handle pose-related uncertainties and ambiguities arising in almost all real life applications concerning 3D data. DBN extends the state of the art direct pose regression networks by (i) a multi-hypotheses prediction head which can yield different distribution modes. We propose new training strategies so as to avoid mode or posterior collapse during training and to improve numerical stability.

  Generalizability of human pose estimation models developed using supervision on large-scale in-studio datasets remains questionable.

Our proposed model employs three consecutive differentiable transformations named as forward-kinematics, camera-projection and spatial-map transformation.
