NeRF improved with self-supervised geometry regularization

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a new method to improve the geometric accuracy of Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) by incorporating a self-supervised cross-ray consistency approach. This technique enhances the density field of vanilla NeRF by sampling candidate surface points and rendering their appearance from multiple virtual rays. By enforcing color consistency and penalizing opacity at inconsistent points, the method refines implicit geometry without requiring ground-truth depth or surface normals. Experiments on the Replica dataset demonstrated a significant reduction in Chamfer distance, improving geometric accuracy by over 30% compared to standard NeRF. AI

IMPACT Enhances geometric accuracy in neural rendering, potentially improving applications that rely on precise 3D scene reconstruction.

    Geometry Regularization for Vanilla NeRF via Self-Supervised Cross-Ray Consistency

    arXiv:2610.27776v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) achieve high-quality novel-view synthesis by representing a scene as a continuous volumetric radiance field. However, the geometry encoded by the density field of vanilla NeRF can be noisy and inaccurat…
