XRNeRF Introduction English | 简体中文 XRNeRF is an open-source PyTorch-based codebase for Neural Radiance Field (NeRF). It is a part of the OpenXRLab project. xrnerf_demo.mp4 This page provides basic tutorials about the usage of XRNeRF. For installation instructions, please see installation.md.

Post method you want see in XRNeRF on our wishlist. Datasets It is recommended to symlink the dataset root to $PROJECT/data. If your folder structure is different, you may need to change the corresponding paths in config files. xrnerf ├── xrnerf ├── docs ├── configs ├── test ├── extensions ├── data │ ├── nerf_llff_data │ ├── nerf_synthetic │ ├── multiscale │ ├── multiscale_google │ ├── ... For more information on data preparation, please see dataset_preparation.md Installation We provide detailed installation tutorial for XRNeRF, users can install from scratch or use provided dockerfile. It is recommended to start by creating a docker image: docker build -f ./docker/Dockerfile --rm -t xrnerf . For more information, please follow our installation tutorial. Build a Model Basic Concepts In XRNeRF, model components are basically categorized as 4 types. network: the whole nerf model pipeline, usually contains a embedder, mlp and render. embedder: convert point-position and viewdirection data into embedded data, embedder can be function only or with trainable paramters. mlp: use the output of embedder as input, and output raw data (the rgb and density value at sampled position) for render, usually contains FC layers. render: receive mlp's raw data, output the rgb value at a pixel. Following some basic pipelines (e.g., NerfNetwork), the model structure can be customized through config files with no pains. Write a new network To write a new nerf network, you need to inherit from BaseNerfNetwork, which defines the following abstract methods. train_step(): forward method of the training mode. val_step(): forward method of the testing mode. NerfNetwork is a good example which show how to do that. To be specific, if we want to implement some new components, there are several things to do. create a new file in xrnerf/models/networks/my_networks.py. from ..builder import NETWORKS from .nerf import NerfNetwork @NETWORKS.register_module() class MyNerfNetwork(NerfNetwork): def __init__(self, cfg, mlp=None, mlp_fine=None, render=None): super().__init__(cfg, mlp, mlp_fine, render) def forward(self, data): .... def train_step(self, data, optimizer, **kwargs): .... def val_step(self, data, optimizer=None, **kwargs): .... Import the module in xrnerf/models/networks/__init__.py from .my_networks import MyNerfNetwork modify the config file from model = dict( type='NerfNetwork', .... to model = dict( type='MyNerfNetwork', .... To implement some new components for embedder/mlp/render, procedure is similar to above. To write a new nerf embedder, you need to inherit from nn.Module or BaseEmbedder, and define the forward method. BaseEmbedder is a good example. To write a new nerf mlp, you need to inherit from nn.Module or BaseMLP, and define the forward method. NerfMLP is a good example. To write a new nerf render, you need to inherit from nn.Module or BaseRender, and define the forward method. NerfRender is a good example. Train a Model Iteration Controls XRNeRF use mmcv.runner.IterBasedRunner to control training, and mmcv.runner.EpochBasedRunner to for test mode. In training mode, the max_iters in config file decide how many iters. In test mode, max_iters is forced to change to 1, which represents only 1 epoch to test. Train python run_nerf.py --config configs/nerf/nerf_blender_base01.py --dataname lego Arguments are: --config: config file path. --dataname: select which data under dataset directory. Test We have provided model iter_200000.pth for test, download from here python run_nerf.py --config configs/nerf/nerf_blender_base01.py --dataname lego --test_only --load_from iter_200000.pth Arguments are: --config: config file path. --dataname: select which data under dataset directory. --test_only: influence on whole testset once. --load_from: load which checkpoint to test, this will overwrite the original load_from in config file to for convenience.
