• Abstract: Novel view synthesis refers to the problem of synthesizing novel viewpoints of a scene given the images from a few viewpoints. This is a fundamental problem in computer vision and graphics, and enables a vast variety of applications such as meta-verse, free-view watching of events, video gaming, video stabilization and video compression. Recent 3D representations such as radiance fields and multi-plane images significantly improve the quality of images rendered from novel viewpoints. However, these models require a dense sampling of input views for high quality renders. Their performance goes down significantly when only a few input views are available. In this thesis, we focus on the sparse input novel view synthesis problem for both static and dynamic scenes.

  We present a novel volumetric prior on human faces that allows for high-fidelity expressive face modeling. We leverage a 3D Morphable Face Model to synthesize a large training set, rendering each identity with different expressions. We then train a conditional Neural Radiance Field prior on this synthetic dataset and, at inference time, fine-tune the model on a very sparse set of real images of a single subject.

  We propose to split the view synthesis process into two independent tasks of pixel reshading and relocation. During the reshading process, we take the single image as the input and adjust its shading based on the novel camera. This reshaded image is then used as the input to an existing view synthesis method to relocate the pixels and produce the final novel view image.

  We propose to leverage both the global and local features to form an expressive 3D representation. To synthesize a novel view, we train a multilayer perceptron (MLP) network conditioned on the learned 3D representation to perform volume rendering. Our method can render novel views from only a single input image and generalize across multiple object categories using a single model.

  A classical problem in computer vision is to infer a 3D scene representation from few images that can be used to render novel views at interactive rates. We propose the Scene Representation Transformer (SRT), a method which processes posed or unposed RGB images of a new area. We show that this method outperforms recent baselines in terms of PSNR and speed on synthetic datasets.
