Abstract
Disclosed herein is methods and systems for providing different views to a viewer. One particular embodiment includes a method including providing, to a neural network, a plurality of 2D images of a 3D object. The neural network may include a signed distance function based sinusoidal representation network. The method may further include obtaining a neural model of a shape of the object by obtaining a zero-level set of the signed distance function; and modeling an appearance of the object using a spatially varying emission function. In some embodiments, the neural model may be converted into a triangular mesh representing the object which may be used to render multiple view-dependent images representative of the 3D object.
