Neural Fields for Scalable Scene Reconstruction
James Tompkin · 2022
Neural fields are a new (and old!) approach to solving problems over spacetime via first-order optimization of a neural network. Over the past three years, combining neural fields with classic computer graphics approaches have allowed us to make significant advances in solving computer vision problems like scene reconstruction. I will present recent work that can reconstruct indoor scenes for photorealistic interactive exploration using new scalable hybrid neural field representations. This has applications where any real-world place needs to be digitized, especially for visualization purposes.
