1st Workshop on Neural Fields Beyond Conventional Cameras

Neural fields have been widely adopted for learning novel view synthesis and 3D reconstruction from RGB images by modeling transport of light in the visible spectrum. This workshop focuses on neural fields beyond conventional cameras, including (1) learning neural fields from data from different sensors across the electromagnetic spectrum and beyond, such as lidar, cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM), thermal, event cameras, acoustic, and more, and (2) modeling associated physics-based differentiable forward models and/or the physics of more complex light transport (reflections, shadows, polarization, diffraction limits, optics, scattering in fog or water, etc.). Our goal is to bring together a diverse group of researchers using neural fields across sensor domains to foster learning and discussion in this growing area.
