Matting

As a byproduct of our method, we can also solve the matting problem by ignoring samples that fall outside of a bounding box during rendering.

Animation

Interpolating states

We can also animate the scene by interpolating the deformation latent codes of two input frames. Use the slider here to linearly interpolate between the left frame and the right frame.

Interpolate start reference image.

Interpolation end reference image.

Re-rendering the input video

Using Nerfies, you can re-render a video from a novel viewpoint such as a stabilized camera by playing back the training deformations.

There's a lot of excellent work that was introduced around the same time as ours.

Progressive Encoding for Neural Optimization introduces an idea similar to our windowed position encoding for coarse-to-fine optimization.

D-NeRF and NR-NeRF both use deformation fields to model non-rigid scenes.

Some works model videos with a NeRF by directly modulating the density, such as Video-NeRF, NSFF, and DyNeRF

There are probably many more by the time you are reading this. Check out Frank Dellart's survey on recent NeRF papers, and Yen-Chen Lin's curated list of NeRF papers.
