Researchers have developed Soft Anisotropic Diagrams (SAD), a novel differentiable image representation method. SAD utilizes adaptive sites in the image plane, each defining an anisotropic metric and distance score, to compute pixel colors through a softmax blend. This approach allows for efficient rendering and achieves significant training speedups compared to existing methods like Image-GS and Instant-NGP. AI
