R. Wu, B. Mildenhall, P. Henzler, K. Park, R. Gao, D. Watson, P. Srinivasan, D. Verbin, J. Barron, B. Poole, A. Holynski
Using an multi-view image conditioned diffusion model to regularize a NeRF enabled few-view reconstruction.
CVPR, 2024
CamP: Camera Preconditioning for Neural Radiance Fields
K. Park, P. Henzler, B. Mildenhall, J. Barron, R. Martin-Brualla
Preconditioning camera optimization during NeRF training significantly improves their ability to jointly recover the scene and camera parameters.
SIGGRAPH Asia, 2023
HyperNeRF: A Higher-Dimensional Representation for Topologically Varying Neural Radiance Fields
K. Park, U. Sinha, P. Hedman, J. Barron, S. Bouaziz, D. Goldman, R. Martin-Brualla, S. Seitz
By applying ideas from level set methods, we can represent topologically changing scenes with NeRFs.
SIGGRAPH Asia, 2021
FiG-NeRF: Figure Ground Neural Radiance Fields for 3D Object Category Modelling
C. Xie, K. Park, R. Martin-Brualla, M. Brown
Given a lot of images of an object category, you can train a NeRF to render them from novel views and interpolate between different instances.
3DV, 2021
Nerfies: Deformable Neural Radiance Fields
K. Park, U. Sinha, J. Barron, S. Bouaziz, D. Goldman, S. Seitz, R. Martin-Brualla
Learning deformation fields with a NeRF let's you reconstruct non-rigid scenes with high fidelity.
ICCV, 2021
LatentFusion: End-to-End Differentiable Reconstruction and Rendering for Unseen Object Pose Estimation
K. Park, A. Mousavian, Y. Xiang, D. Fox
By learning to predict geometry from images, you can do zero-shot pose estimation with a single network.
CVPR, 2020
PhotoShape: Photorealistic Materials for Large-Scale Shape Collections
K. Park, K. Rematas, A. Farhadi, S. Seitz
By pairing large collections of images, 3D models, and materials, you can create thousands of photorealistic 3D models fully automatically.
SIGGRAPH Asia, 2018
