📝 摘要(中文)
当前几乎所有最先进的视图合成和重建模型都依赖于标定相机或额外的几何先验进行训练。这些前提条件显著限制了它们在大规模无标定数据上的适用性。为了解决这一问题并释放对大规模无标定视频的自监督训练潜力,本文提出了一种新颖的两阶段策略,仅使用原始视频帧或多视图图像进行视图合成模型的训练,而无需提供相机参数或其他先验。在第一阶段,我们在潜在空间中隐式重建场景,预测每帧的潜在相机和场景上下文特征,并将视图合成模型作为显式渲染的代理。第二阶段通过显式预测3D高斯原语来减少潜在表示与真实3D世界之间的差距。实验结果表明,所提方法在视图合成和相机姿态估计方面优于依赖标定、姿态或深度信息的其他方法。

📄 摘要(原文)
Currently almost all state-of-the-art novel view synthesis and reconstruction models rely on calibrated cameras or additional geometric priors for training. These prerequisites significantly limit their applicability to massive uncalibrated data. To alleviate this requirement and unlock the potential for self-supervised training on large-scale uncalibrated videos, we propose a novel two-stage strategy to train a view synthesis model from only raw video frames or multi-view images, without providing camera parameters or other priors. In the first stage, we learn to reconstruct the scene implicitly in a latent space without relying on any explicit 3D representation. Specifically, we predict per-frame latent camera and scene context features, and employ a view synthesis model as a proxy for explicit rendering. This pretraining stage substantially reduces the optimization complexity and encourages the network to learn the underlying 3D consistency in a self-supervised manner. The learned latent camera and implicit scene representation have a large gap compared with the real 3D world. To reduce this gap, we introduce the second stage training by explicitly predicting 3D Gaussian primitives. We additionally apply explicit Gaussian Splatting rendering loss and depth projection loss to align the learned latent representations with physically grounded 3D geometry. In this way, Stage 1 provides a strong initialization and Stage 2 enforces 3D consistency - the two stages are complementary and mutually beneficial. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, achieving high-quality novel view synthesis and accurate camera pose estimation, compared to methods that employ supervision with calibration, pose, or depth information.
