We present an approach that learns to synthesize high-quality, novel views of 3D objects or scenes, while providing fine-grained and precise control over the 6-DOF viewpoint. The approach is self-supervised and only requires 2D images and…
Novel-view synthesis (NVS) can be tackled through different approaches, depending on the general setting: a single source image to a short video sequence, exact or noisy camera pose information, 3D-based information such as point clouds…
Camera-conditioned video generation requires positional encoding that remains reliable under changes in camera motion, lens configuration, and scene structure. However, existing attention-level camera encodings either provide ray-only…
Comparing two images in a view-invariant way has been a challenging problem in computer vision for a long time, as visual features are not stable under large view point changes. In this paper, given a single input image of an object, we…
We present an approach to infer a layer-structured 3D representation of a scene from a single input image. This allows us to infer not only the depth of the visible pixels, but also to capture the texture and depth for content in the scene…
This paper presents a learning-based approach to synthesize the view from an arbitrary camera position given a sparse set of images. A key challenge for this novel view synthesis arises from the reconstruction process, when the views from…

Feed-forward visual geometry estimation has recently made rapid progress. However, an important gap remains: multi-frame models usually produce better cross-frame consistency, yet they often underperform strong per-frame methods on…
We present view-synthesis autoencoders (VSA) in this paper, which is a self-supervised learning framework designed for vision transformers. Different from traditional 2D pretraining methods, VSA can be pre-trained with multi-view data. In…
We introduce Free3D, a simple accurate method for monocular open-set novel view synthesis (NVS). Similar to Zero-1-to-3, we start from a pre-trained 2D image generator for generalization, and fine-tune it for NVS. Compared to other works…
A powerful and flexible approach to structured prediction consists in embedding the structured objects to be predicted into a feature space of possibly infinite dimension by means of output kernels, and then, solving a regression problem in…
3D scene reconstruction from 2D images has been a long-standing task. Instead of estimating per-frame depth maps and fusing them in 3D, recent research leverages the neural implicit surface as a unified representation for 3D reconstruction.…
Novel view synthesis (NVS) approaches such as NeRFs or 3DGS can produce photo-realistic 3D scene representation from a set of images with known extrinsic and intrinsic parameters. The necessary camera poses and calibrations are typically…
