Our #CVPR22 paper on Panoptic NeRF is now released on arxiv. TL;DR: view synthesis + semantics on “stuff” and objects in the scene. Object-based NeRFs also allow for editing/moving/removing.

Fully agreed; in addition, model your audience as having ADD and a desperate need to be entertained :-) I always thought Princeton’s (ex-)Prof X.’s students, like @SongShuran , did an amazing job at this.

Another paper I missed (in session 10): NeRD (https://t.co/KdK2mGEByU) or “Neural Reflectance Decomposition” uses physically-based rendering to decompose the scene into spatially varying BRDF material properties, enabling re-lighting of the scene. (N+9) #ICCV2021

A Conditional NeRF paper drop from UCL, incl. @LourdesAgapito . This is getting more and more popular. What other conditional NeRF variants do y’all know of?

Lie groups are actually not needed, turns out you just need manifolds! @gtsam4 was based on Lie groups for a few years, but then we found manifolds to optimize over (3D planes, directions in 3D, essential matrix) that do *not* have group structure. Check out great book by Absil++

Very nice work on multi-view surface reconstruction using deep SDF representations. Results on the challenging Tanks and Temples dataset…

And another effort in which deep learning speeds up optimization, this time mixed integer programming…

I actually meant the fact that when coding in pytorch or tensorflow you always have to account for the batch dimensions. It’s like programming in assembly all over again. We should have something #halide - like that abstracts all that away. Does that exist??
