Understanding NeRF or Neural Radiance Fields 🧐

It is a method that can synthesize new views of 3D scenes using a small number of input views.

As part of the @weights_biases blogathon (https://t.co/tRddw6jXeA), here are some articles to understand them

Here is an implementation of NeRF using JAX & Flax https://t.co/pKO5NDSDqv.

The Report used W&B to track the experiments, compare results, ensure reproducibility, and track utilization of the TPU during the experiment.

Mip-NeRF 360 is a follow-up work that looks at whether it's possible to effectively represent an unbounded scene, where the camera may point in any direction and content may exist at any distance.

Training a single NeRF does not scale when trying to represent scenes as large as cities.

To overcome this challenge, Block-NeRF was introduced which yields some amazing reconstructions of San Francisco. Here's one of Lombard Street.

They built their implementation on top of Mip-NeRF, and also combine many NeRFs to reconstruct a coherent large environment from millions of images.

Thanks for reading! 🪄

The W&B blogathon is ending in a few days on June 14, if you'd like to take part and write some nice articles as I've included here, we'd love your participation.

1st Live example of managing a strangle by Mitesh Sir. @Mitesh_Engr

• Sold Strangles 20% cap used
• Added 20% cap more when in profit
• Booked profitable leg and rolled up

• Booked loss in calls
• Sold only

• Identified a reversal and sold puts

• Puts decayed a lot

• When achieved 2% profit through puts then sold

After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.

In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.
