• Abstract summary: We propose a novel sparse view reconstruction framework that leverages on-surface priors to achieve highly faithful surface reconstruction. Specifically, we design several constraints on global geometry alignment and local geometry refinement for jointly optimizing coarse shapes and fine details. The experimental results with DTU and BlendedMVS datasets in two prevalent sparse settings demonstrate significant improvements over the state-of-the-art methods.

• Abstract: Recently, neural implicit functions have demonstrated remarkable results in the field of multi-view reconstruction. However, most existing methods are tailored for dense views and exhibit unsatisfactory performance when dealing with sparse views. Several latest methods have been proposed for generalizing implicit reconstruction to address the sparse view reconstruction task, but they still suffer from high training costs and are merely valid under carefully selected perspectives. In this paper, we propose a novel sparse view reconstruction framework that leverages on-surface priors to achieve highly faithful surface reconstruction. Specifically, we design several constraints on global geometry alignment and local geometry refinement for jointly optimizing coarse shapes and fine details. To achieve this, we train a neural network to learn a global implicit field from the on-surface points obtained from SfM and then leverage it as a coarse geometric constraint. To exploit local geometric consistency, we project on-surface points onto seen and unseen views, treating the consistent loss of projected features as a fine geometric constraint. The experimental results with DTU and BlendedMVS datasets in two prevalent sparse settings demonstrate significant improvements over the state-of-the-art methods.

  The reconstruction of indoor scenes from multi-view RGB images is challenging due to the coexistence of flat and texture-less regions. Recent methods leverage neural radiance fields aided by predicted surface normal priors to recover the scene geometry. This work aims to reconstruct high-fidelity surfaces with fine-grained details by addressing the above limitations.

  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.

  State-of-the-art neural implicit methods allow for high-quality reconstructions of simple scenes from many input views. This is caused primarily by the inherent ambiguity in the RGB reconstruction loss that does not provide enough constraints. Motivated by recent advances in the area of monocular geometry prediction, we explore the utility these cues provide for improving neural implicit surface reconstruction.

  We present a novel neural surface reconstruction method, called NeuS, for reconstructing objects and scenes with high fidelity from 2D image inputs. Existing neural surface reconstruction approaches, such as DVR and IDR, require foreground mask as supervision. We observe that the conventional volume rendering method causes inherent geometric errors for surface reconstruction. We propose a new formulation that is free of bias in the first order of approximation, thus leading to more accurate surface reconstruction even without the mask supervision.
