Prof. Dr. Oliver Staadt - head of the chair of Visual Computing - will give a presentation on the topic
"Deep Learning for Visual Computing: An Introduction to Inverse Rendering and Neural Radiance Fields"
as part of the VAC Colloquium.
Afterwards we look forward to discussions while enjoying coffee and cookies.
The event is open to anyone interested.
Abstract:
Inverse rendering is the process of recovering the properties of a scene from images, such as its geometry, lighting, and materials. Neural radiance fields (NeRFs) are a type of deep learning model that can be used for inverse rendering. NeRFs represent a 3D scene as a continuous function that maps from 3D points to RGB colors and opacity values.
In this short talk, I will give an introduction to inverse rendering and NeRFs. I will discuss the basic principles of inverse rendering, and how NERFs can be used to solve this problem.
