Researchers at Google released Zip-NeRF this week. A neural radiance field (NeRF) is a fully-connected neural network that can generate novel views of complex 3D scenes, based on a partial set of 2D images. Zip-NeRF incorporates complex anti-aliasing and faster training than previous NeFT system, with very impressive results.
