• Abstract: Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging aims to reconstruct partially or completely occluded scenes. Recent approaches have demonstrated high-quality reconstructions of complex scenes with arbitrary reflectance, occlusions, and significant multi-path effects. However, previous works focused on surface scattering only, which reduces the generality in more challenging scenarios such as scenes submerged in scattering media. In this work, we investigate current state-of-the-art NLOS imaging methods based on phasor fields to reconstruct scenes submerged in scattering media. We empirically analyze the capability of phasor fields in reconstructing complex synthetic scenes submerged in thick scattering media. We also apply the method to real scenes, showing that it performs similarly to recent diffuse optical tomography methods.

  Inverse rendering, the process of inferring scene properties from images, is a challenging inverse problem. Most existing solutions incorporate priors into the inverse-rendering pipeline to encourage plausible solutions. We propose a novel scheme that integrates a denoising probabilistic diffusion model pre-trained on natural illumination maps into an optimization framework.
