Researchers have introduced Spherical Voronoi (SV) as a novel framework for representing appearance in 3D radiance field methods like 3D Gaussian Splatting. This approach partitions the directional domain into learnable regions, offering a more intuitive and stable way to model view-dependent effects compared to traditional Spherical Harmonics. SV demonstrates state-of-the-art results in capturing realistic reflections and diffuse appearance on both synthetic and real-world datasets. AI
