Installation

Requirements

  • python >= 3.8
  • Pytorch >= 1.10 && !=1.12 && <2.0

    • need to match the major CUDA version that your Pytorch built with

An example of our platform (python=3.8, pytorch=1.11, cuda=11.3 / 11.7):

conda create -n nr3d python=3.8
conda activate nr3d
conda install pytorch==1.11.0 torchvision==0.12.0 torchaudio==0.11.0 cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch
  • pytorch_scatter
conda install pytorch-scatter -c pyg
  • other pip packages
pip install opencv-python-headless kornia imagesize omegaconf addict imageio imageio-ffmpeg scikit-image scikit-learn pyyaml pynvml psutil seaborn==0.12.0 trimesh plyfile ninja icecream tqdm plyfile tensorboard

One-liner install

cd to the nr3d_lib directory, and then: (Notice the trailing dot .)

pip install -v .

Highlight implementations

📌 [attributes]: Unified API framework for scene node attributes

Code: models/attributes

We extend pytorch.Tensor to represent common types of data involved in 3D neural rendering, e.g. transforms (SO3, SE3) and camera models (pinhole, OpenCV, fisheye), in order to eliminate concerns for tensor shapes, different variants and gradients and only expose common APIs regardless of the underlying implementation.

attr_transform attr_camera

These data types could have multiple variants but with the same way to use. For example, SE3 can be represented by RT matrices, 4x4 matrix, or exponential coordinates, and let alone the different representations of the underlying SO3 (quaternions, axis-angles, Euler angles...) when using RT as SE3. But when it comes to usage, the APIs are the same, e.g. transform(), rotate(), mat_3x4(), mat_4x4(), inv(), default transform, etc. In addition, there could also be complex data prefix like [4,4] or [B,4,4] or [N,B,4,4] etc. Once implemented under our framework and settings, you need only care about the APIs and can forget all the underlying calculations and tensor shape rearrangements.

You can check out models/attributes/transform.py for better understanding. Another example is models/attributes/camera_param.py.

Most of the basic pytorch.Tensor operations are implemented for Attr and AttrNested, e.g. slicing (support arbitrary slice with : and ...), indexing, .to() , .clone(), .stack(), .concat(). Gradient flows and nn.Parameters(), nn.Buffer() are also kept / supported if needed.

📌 [fields]: Implicit representations

fields: single scene

Code: models/fields

fields_conditional: conditional / categorical fields

Code: models/fields_conditional
