We introduce a principled approach for synthesizing new views of a scene given a single source image. Previous methods for novel view synthesis can be divided into image-based rendering methods (e.g. flow prediction) or pixel generation methods. Flow predictions enable the target view to re-use pixels directly, but can easily lead to distorted results. Directly regressing pixels can produce structurally consistent results but generally suffer from the lack of low-level details. In this paper, we utilize an encoder-decoder architecture to regress pixels of a target view. In order to maintain details, we couple the decoder aligned feature maps with skip connections, where the alignment is guided by predicted depth map of the target view. Our experimental results show that our method does not suffer from distortions and successfully preserves texture details with aligned skip connections.

Existing view synthesis methods mainly focus on the perspective images and have shown promising results. However, due to the limited field-of-view of the pinhole camera, the performance quickly degrades when large camera movements are adopted. In thi s paper, we make the first attempt to generate novel views from a single indoor panorama and take the large camera translations into consideration. To tackle this challenging problem, we first use Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to extract the deep features and estimate the depth map from the source-view image. Then, we leverage the room layout prior, a strong structural constraint of the indoor scene, to guide the generation of target views. More concretely, we estimate the room layout in the source view and transform it into the target viewpoint as guidance. Meanwhile, we also constrain the room layout of the generated target-view images to enforce geometric consistency. To validate the effectiveness of our method, we further build a large-scale photo-realistic dataset containing both small and large camera translations. The experimental results on our challenging dataset demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance. The project page is at https://github.com/bluestyle97/PNVS.
We propose a learning-based approach for novel view synthesis for multi-camera 360$^{circ}$ panorama capture rigs. Previous work constructs RGBD panoramas from such data, allowing for view synthesis with small amounts of translation, but cannot handl e the disocclusions and view-dependent effects that are caused by large translations. To address this issue, we present a novel scene representation - Multi Depth Panorama (MDP) - that consists of multiple RGBD$alpha$ panoramas that represent both scene geometry and appearance. We demonstrate a deep neural network-based method to reconstruct MDPs from multi-camera 360$^{circ}$ images. MDPs are more compact than previous 3D scene representations and enable high-quality, efficient new view rendering. We demonstrate this via experiments on both synthetic and real data and comparisons with previous state-of-the-art methods spanning both learning-based approaches and classical RGBD-based methods.
Multi-View Stereo (MVS) is a core task in 3D computer vision. With the surge of novel deep learning methods, learned MVS has surpassed the accuracy of classical approaches, but still relies on building a memory intensive dense cost volume. Novel View Synthesis (NVS) is a parallel line of research and has recently seen an increase in popularity with Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) models, which optimize a per scene radiance field. However, NeRF methods do not generalize to novel scenes and are slow to train and test. We propose to bridge the gap between these two methodologies with a novel network that can recover 3D scene geometry as a distance function, together with high-resolution color images. Our method uses only a sparse set of images as input and can generalize well to novel scenes. Additionally, we propose a coarse-to-fine sphere tracing approach in order to significantly increase speed. We show on various datasets that our method reaches comparable accuracy to per-scene optimized methods while being able to generalize and running significantly faster.
Content creation, central to applications such as virtual reality, can be a tedious and time-consuming. Recent image synthesis methods simplify this task by offering tools to generate new views from as little as a single input image, or by converting a semantic map into a photorealistic image. We propose to push the envelope further, and introduce Generative View Synthesis (GVS), which can synthesize multiple photorealistic views of a scene given a single semantic map. We show that the sequential application of existing techniques, e.g., semantics-to-image translation followed by monocular view synthesis, fail at capturing the scenes structure. In contrast, we solve the semantics-to-image translation in concert with the estimation of the 3D layout of the scene, thus producing geometrically consistent novel views that preserve semantic structures. We first lift the input 2D semantic map onto a 3D layered representation of the scene in feature space, thereby preserving the semantic labels of 3D geometric structures. We then project the layered features onto the target views to generate the final novel-view images. We verify the strengths of our method and compare it with several advanced baselines on three different datasets. Our approach also allows for style manipulation and image editing operations, such as the addition or removal of objects, with simple manipulations of the input style images and semantic maps respectively.

Acquiring complete and clean 3D shape and scene data is challenging due to geometric occlusion and insufficient views during 3D capturing. We present a simple yet effective deep learning approach for completing the input noisy and incomplete shapes o r scenes. Our network is built upon the octree-based CNNs (O-CNN) with U-Net like structures, which enjoys high computational and memory efficiency and supports to construct a very deep network structure for 3D CNNs. A novel output-guided skip-connection is introduced to the network structure for better preserving the input geometry and learning geometry prior from data effectively. We show that with these simple adaptions -- output-guided skip-connection and deeper O-CNN (up to 70 layers), our network achieves state-of-the-art results in 3D shape completion and semantic scene computation.
