Object-Centric Voxelization of Dynamic Scenes via Inverse Neural Rendering
share
Understanding the compositional dynamics of the world in unsupervised 3D scenarios is challenging. Existing approaches either fail to make effective use of time cues or ignore the multi-view consistency of scene decomposition. In this paper, we propose DynaVol, an inverse neural rendering framework that provides a pilot study for learning time-varying volumetric representations for dynamic scenes with multiple entities (like objects). It has two main contributions. First, it maintains a time-dependent 3D grid, which dynamically and flexibly binds the spatial locations to different entities, thus encouraging the separation of information at a representational level. Second, our approach jointly learns grid-level local dynamics, object-level global dynamics, and the compositional neural radiance fields in an end-to-end architecture, thereby enhancing the spatiotemporal consistency of object-centric scene voxelization. We present a two-stage training scheme for DynaVol and validate its effectiveness on various benchmarks with multiple objects, diverse dynamics, and real-world shapes and textures.
