• Abstract: Novel view synthesis (NVS) is a challenge in computer vision and graphics, focusing on generating realistic images of a scene from unobserved camera poses, given a limited set of authentic input images. Neural radiance fields (NeRF) achieved impressive results in rendering quality by utilizing volumetric rendering. However, NeRF and its variants are unsuitable for mobile devices due to the high computational cost of volumetric rendering. Emerging research in neural light fields (NeLF) eliminates the need for volumetric rendering by directly learning a mapping from ray representation to pixel color. NeLF has demonstrated its capability to achieve results similar to NeRF but requires a more extensive, computationally intensive network that is not mobile-friendly. Unlike existing works, this research builds upon the novel network architecture introduced by MobileR2L and aggressively applies a compression technique (channel-wise structure pruning) to produce a model that runs efficiently on mobile devices with lower latency and smaller sizes, with a slight decrease in performance.

  Recent works have improved NeRF's ability to render detailed specular appearance of distant environment illumination, but are unable to synthesize consistent reflections of closer content. We address these issues with an approach based on ray tracing. Instead of querying an expensive neural network for the outgoing view-dependent radiance at points along each camera ray, our model casts rays from these points and traces them through the NeRF representation to render feature vectors.

  Neural radiance fields provide state-of-the-art view synthesis quality but tend to be slow to render. We propose a method, HybridNeRF, that leverages the strengths of both representations by rendering most objects as surfaces. We improve error rates by 15-30% while achieving real-time framerates (at least 36 FPS) for virtual-reality resolutions (2Kx2K)

  We propose a new representation called Neural Radiance Distribution Field (NeRDF) that targets efficient view synthesis in real-time. We use a small network similar to NeRF while preserving the rendering speed with a single network forwarding per pixel as in NeLF. Experiments show that our proposed method offers a better trade-off among speed, quality, and network size than existing methods.

This enables view synthesis and localization of video sequences from unknown camera poses, opening up new avenues for visual localization systems.
