RelPose: Predicting Probabilistic Relative Rotation for Single Objects in the Wild
Authors:Jason Y. Zhang, Deva Ramanan, Shubham Tulsiani
We describe a data-driven method for inferring the camera viewpoints given multiple images of an arbitrary object. This task is a core component of classic geometric pipelines such as SfM and SLAM, and also serves as a vital pre-processing requirement for contemporary neural approaches (e.g. NeRF) to object reconstruction and view synthesis. In contrast to existing correspondence-driven methods that do not perform well given sparse views, we propose a top-down prediction based approach for estimating camera viewpoints. Our key technical insight is the use of an energy-based formulation for representing distributions over relative camera rotations, thus allowing us to explicitly represent multiple camera modes arising from object symmetries or views. Leveraging these relative predictions, we jointly estimate a consistent set of camera rotations from multiple images. We show that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art SfM and SLAM methods given sparse images on both seen and unseen categories. Further, our probabilistic approach significantly outperforms directly regressing relative poses, suggesting that modeling multimodality is important for coherent joint reconstruction. We demonstrate that our system can be a stepping stone toward in-the-wild reconstruction from multi-view datasets.

FDNeRF: Few-shot Dynamic Neural Radiance Fields for Face Reconstruction and Expression Editing
Authors:Jingbo Zhang, Xiaoyu Li, Ziyu Wan, Can Wang, Jing Liao
We propose a Few-shot Dynamic Neural Radiance Field (FDNeRF), the first NeRF-based method capable of reconstruction and expression editing of 3D faces based on a small number of dynamic images. Unlike existing dynamic NeRFs that require dense images as input and can only be modeled for a single identity, our method enables face reconstruction across different persons with few-shot inputs. Compared to state-of-the-art few-shot NeRFs designed for modeling static scenes, the proposed FDNeRF accepts view-inconsistent dynamic inputs and supports arbitrary facial expression editing, i.e., producing faces with novel expressions beyond the input ones. To handle the inconsistencies between dynamic inputs, we introduce a well-designed conditional feature warping (CFW) module to perform expression conditioned warping in 2D feature space, which is also identity adaptive and 3D constrained. As a result, features of different expressions are transformed into the target ones. We then construct a radiance field based on these view-consistent features and use volumetric rendering to synthesize novel views of the modeled faces. Extensive experiments with quantitative and qualitative evaluation demonstrate that our method outperforms existing dynamic and few-shot NeRFs on both 3D face reconstruction and expression editing tasks. Our code and model will be available upon acceptance.
