• Abstract: Reconstructing category-specific objects from a single image is a challenging task that requires inferring the geometry and appearance of an object from a limited viewpoint. Existing methods typically rely on local feature retrieval based on re-projection with known camera intrinsic, which are slow and prone to distortion at viewpoints distant from the input image. In this paper, we present Variable Radiance Field (VRF), a novel framework that can efficiently reconstruct category-specific objects from a single image without known camera parameters. Our key contributions are: (1) We parameterize the geometry and appearance of the object using a multi-scale global feature extractor, which avoids frequent point-wise feature retrieval and camera dependency. We also propose a contrastive learning-based pretraining strategy to improve the feature extractor. (2) We reduce the geometric complexity of the object by learning a category template, and use hypernetworks to generate a small neural radiance field for fast and instance-specific rendering. (3) We align each training instance to the template space using a learned similarity transformation, which enables semantic-consistent learning across different objects. We evaluate our method on the CO3D dataset and show that it outperforms existing methods in terms of quality and speed. We also demonstrate its applicability to shape interpolation and object placement tasks.

  Reconstructing 3D scenes from a single image is a fundamentally ill-posed task due to the severely under-constrained nature of the problem. In this work, we address these inherent limitations in existing single image-to-3D scene feedforward networks. To alleviate the poor performance due to insufficient information beyond the input image's view, we leverage a strong generative prior in the form of a pre-trained latent video diffusion model.

  Single-view reconstruction typically rely on viewpoint annotations, silhouettes, the absence of background, multiple views of the same instance, a template shape, or symmetry. We avoid all of these supervisions and hypotheses by leveraging explicitly the consistency between images of different object instances. Our main contributions are two approaches to leverage cross-instance consistency: (i) progressive conditioning, a training strategy to gradually specialize the model from category to instances in a curriculum learning fashion; (ii) swap reconstruction, a loss enforcing consistency between instances having similar shape or texture.
