CoherentGS: Sparse Novel View Synthesis with Coherent 3D Gaussians

no code implementations28 Mar 2024 Avinash Paliwal, Wei Ye, Jinhui Xiong, Dmytro Kotovenko, Rakesh Ranjan, Vikas Chandra, Nima Khademi Kalantari

The field of 3D reconstruction from images has rapidly evolved in the past few years, first with the introduction of Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) and more recently with 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS).

Towards Image Ambient Lighting Normalization

no code implementations27 Mar 2024 Florin-Alexandru Vasluianu, Tim Seizinger, Zongwei Wu, Rakesh Ranjan, Radu Timofte

However, existing works often simplify this task within the context of shadow removal, limiting the light sources to one and oversimplifying the scene, thus excluding complex self-shadows and restricting surface classes to smooth ones.

MVDiffusion++: A Dense High-resolution Multi-view Diffusion Model for Single or Sparse-view 3D Object Reconstruction

no code implementations20 Feb 2024 Shitao Tang, Jiacheng Chen, Dilin Wang, Chengzhou Tang, Fuyang Zhang, Yuchen Fan, Vikas Chandra, Yasutaka Furukawa, Rakesh Ranjan

MVDiffusion++ achieves superior flexibility and scalability with two surprisingly simple ideas: 1) A ``pose-free architecture'' where standard self-attention among 2D latent features learns 3D consistency across an arbitrary number of conditional and generation views without explicitly using camera pose information; and 2) A ``view dropout strategy'' that discards a substantial number of output views during training, which reduces the training-time memory footprint and enables dense and high-resolution view synthesis at test time.

Key-Graph Transformer for Image Restoration

no code implementations4 Feb 2024 Bin Ren, Yawei Li, Jingyun Liang, Rakesh Ranjan, Mengyuan Liu, Rita Cucchiara, Luc van Gool, Nicu Sebe

While it is crucial to capture global information for effective image restoration (IR), integrating such cues into transformer-based methods becomes computationally expensive, especially with high input resolution.

Taming Mode Collapse in Score Distillation for Text-to-3D Generation

no code implementations31 Dec 2023 Peihao Wang, Dejia Xu, Zhiwen Fan, Dilin Wang, Sreyas Mohan, Forrest Iandola, Rakesh Ranjan, Yilei Li, Qiang Liu, Zhangyang Wang, Vikas Chandra

In this paper, we reveal that the existing score distillation-based text-to-3D generation frameworks degenerate to maximal likelihood seeking on each view independently and thus suffer from the mode collapse problem, manifesting as the Janus artifact in practice.

Training Neural Networks on RAW and HDR Images for Restoration Tasks

no code implementations6 Dec 2023 Lei Luo, ALEXANDRE CHAPIRO, Xiaoyu Xiang, Yuchen Fan, Rakesh Ranjan, Rafal Mantiuk

Our results indicate that neural networks train significantly better on HDR and RAW images represented in display-encoded color spaces, which offer better perceptual uniformity than linear spaces.

MoVideo: Motion-Aware Video Generation with Diffusion Models

no code implementations19 Nov 2023 Jingyun Liang, Yuchen Fan, Kai Zhang, Radu Timofte, Luc van Gool, Rakesh Ranjan

While recent years have witnessed great progress on using diffusion models for video generation, most of them are simple extensions of image generation frameworks, which fail to explicitly consider one of the key differences between videos and images, i. e., motion.

NOVIS: A Case for End-to-End Near-Online Video Instance Segmentation

no code implementations29 Aug 2023 Tim Meinhardt, Matt Feiszli, Yuchen Fan, Laura Leal-Taixe, Rakesh Ranjan

Until recently, the Video Instance Segmentation (VIS) community operated under the common belief that offline methods are generally superior to a frame by frame online processing.
