• Abstract: This paper tackles the simultaneous optimization of pose and Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF). Departing from the conventional practice of using explicit global representations for camera pose, we propose a novel overparameterized representation that models camera poses as learnable rigid warp functions. We establish that modeling the rigid warps must be tightly coupled with constraints and regularization imposed. Specifically, we highlight the critical importance of enforcing invertibility when learning rigid warp functions via neural network and propose the use of an Invertible Neural Network (INN) coupled with a geometry-informed constraint for this purpose. We present results on synthetic and real-world datasets, and demonstrate that our approach outperforms existing baselines in terms of pose estimation and high-fidelity reconstruction due to enhanced optimization convergence.

• Space-Variant Total Variation boosted by learning techniques in few-view tomographic imaging [0.0]
  This paper focuses on the development of a space-variant regularization model for solving an under-determined linear inverse problem. The primary objective of the proposed model is to achieve a good balance between denoising and the preservation of fine details and edges. A convolutional neural network is designed, to approximate both the ground truth image and its gradient using an elastic loss function in its training.
