📝 摘要(中文)
隐式神经表示(NeRF)在3D计算机视觉中因其高质量视觉效果和数据驱动优势而占据主导地位。然而,其实际应用受到稠密输入和逐场景优化需求的限制。为了解决这一问题,之前的方法通过从稀疏输入中提取局部特征作为NeRF解码器的条件来实现可泛化的NeRF。然而,这种方法由于错误的重投影特征导致结果次优。本文提出了一种新的间接扩散引导NeRF框架ID-NeRF,利用预训练的扩散先验指导重投影特征,并采用间接先验注入策略以实现3D一致性预测。通过在多个数据集上的广泛实验,结果表明该方法在稀疏设置下合成新视图的有效性。

📄 摘要(原文)
Implicit neural representations, represented by Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF), have dominated research in 3D computer vision by virtue of high-quality visual results and data-driven benefits. However, their realistic applications are hindered by the need for dense inputs and per-scene optimization. To solve this problem, previous methods implement generalizable NeRFs by extracting local features from sparse inputs as conditions for the NeRF decoder. However, although this way can allow feed-forward reconstruction, they suffer from the inherent drawback of yielding sub-optimal results caused by erroneous reprojected features. In this paper, we focus on this problem and aim to address it by introducing pre-trained generative priors to enable high-quality generalizable novel view synthesis. Specifically, we propose a novel Indirect Diffusion-guided NeRF framework, termed ID-NeRF, which leverages pre-trained diffusion priors as a guide for the reprojected features created by the previous paradigm. Notably, to enable 3D-consistent predictions, the proposed ID-NeRF discards the way of direct supervision commonly used in prior 3D generative models and instead adopts a novel indirect prior injection strategy. This strategy is implemented by distilling pre-trained knowledge into an imaginative latent space via score-based distillation, and an attention-based refinement module is then proposed to leverage the embedded priors to improve reprojected features extracted from sparse inputs. We conduct extensive experiments on multiple datasets to evaluate our method, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in synthesizing novel views in a generalizable manner, especially in sparse settings.
