What is NERF or Neural Radiance Field?
2
If you are interested in the world of 3D rendering, I've got to say that NERF is a method
3
that achieves a state -of -the -art result for synthesizing novel
4
views of complex scenes by optimizing an underlying continuous volumetric scene function using a sparse set of input views.
5
But that sounds like a lot of jargon.
6
Suppose you take a few photos from different angles and NERF uses AI to fill in all the gaps.
7
In simple terms, NERF is a deep learning model that generates highly realistic 3D scene from just a handful of 2D images.
8
lot of computational power.
9
But why is this such a big deal?
10
Traditional 3D rendering techniques are computationally expensive and often require tons of manual labor to create something that looks good.
11
Nerf on the other hand, automates this process using neural networks which can learn and predict the way light interacts with the objects in the scene.
12
This means Faster, more accurate and more realistic 3D models with way less effort.
13
One of the most exciting applications of Nerf is in virtual reality or augmented reality.
14
Imagine putting on a VR headset and stepping into a world
15
that is almost indistinguishable from reality
16
or using AR to place virtual objects in a real environment that look like they are actually there.
17
Nerf can make these experiences more immersive and lifelike than ever before and it's not just for gaming and entertainment.
18
Nerf has potential applications in fields like architecture, or it can help create detailed 3D models from just a few photos,
19
or in medical imaging where it can generate 3D renderings of organs from 2D scans, aiding in diagnosis and treatment.
20
Of course, like any emerging technology there are challenges to overcome.
21
Neural Radiance Field models require a lot of computational power and large amounts of data to train effectively.
22
But as hardware gets better and algorithms become more efficient, we are likely to see NERF become more accessible and widely adopted.
23
For example, this technology can be applied in various contexts such as construction sites.
24
In the past few years, there has been several attempts to improve the nerf rendering quality and performance like multi -scale representation.
25
By efficiently rendering anti -aliased conical frost terms instead of rays,
26
MIP nerf reduces objectionable aliasing artifacts and significantly improves nerf's ability to represent fine details,
27
while also being 7 % faster than nerf and half the size.
28
Therefore, MIP nerf proves to be the better model for representing objects.

如何用这段视频练习
- 先完整听一遍视频,不要开口,记下不认识的单词。
- 先用 0.75 倍速逐句跟读,熟练之后再回到正常速度。
- 录下自己的声音并与原声对比,特别注意 alias, artifact, automate 这类单词。
什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
