tinynerf

Concise (<1000 locs) and fast implementation of several NeRF techniques. Currently it contains an implementation of vanilla NeRF, K-Planes and Cobafa, accelerated with a single CUDA kernel to compute the weights from 'NeRF equation'.

Features

• Vanilla NeRF, K-Planes and Cobafa
• Occupancy grid to accelerate training (based on Instant-NGP but with slightly different decaying method)
• Unbounded and AABB scenes
• Dynamic batches, each iteration process a constant number of samples by packing samples from each ray
• CUDA implementation of NeRF weights computation
• Reproduction of KPlanes results on synthetic dataset
• Reproduction of Cobafa results on synthetic dataset
• Proposal sampling
• COLMAP data loading
• Appearance embedding
