• matplotlib
• opencv
• scikit-image
• scipy
• json

Pretrained Model

Download and unzip pretrained models from link.

To use the pretrained model, put the folders under the project root directory.

Test the pretrained model:

To run the evaluation, change variable "root" and "data_dir" in script evaluation.py to code directory and data directory respectively. The released code is not highly optimized, so you have to use 4 GPUs with > 11GB memory to run the evaluation.

Follow the commands below:

   # Usage
   # python evaluation.py --dataset <name> --max_depth <max depth> --ref_fov <fov> --warp_src_img 1
   
   python evaluation.py --dataset trevi --max_depth 4 --ref_fov 70 --warp_src_img 1

Demo of novel view synthesis:

   # Usage
   # python wander.py --dataset <name> --max_depth <max depth> --ref_fov <fov> --warp_src_img 1 --where_add adain --img_a_name xxx --img_b_name xxx --img_c_name xxx
 
   python wander.py --dataset trevi --max_depth 4 --ref_fov 70 --warp_src_img 1  --where_add adain --img_a_name 5094768508_fa56e355bd.jpg  -
-img_b_name 34558526690_e5ba5b3b9d.jpg --img_c_name 34558526690_e5ba5b3b9d.jpg

where

• img_a_name: image associated with rendering target viewpoint,
• set img_b_name=img_c_name: image whose apperance we would like to condition on. The results will be saved in folder demo_wander_trevi.

By running the example command, you should get the following result:

Demo of apperance inteporlation:

   # Usage
   # python interpolate_appearance.py --dataset <name> --max_depth <max depth> --ref_fov <fov> --warp_src_img 1 --where_add adain --img_a_name xxx --img_b_name xxx --img_c_name xxx
 
   python interpolate_appearance.py --dataset trevi --max_depth 4 --ref_fov 70 --warp_src_img 1  --where_add adain --img_a_name 157303382_3ca2b644c9.jpg  --img_b_name 255196242_3f46e98a0f_o.jpg --img_c_name 157303382_3ca2b644c9.jpg

where

• img_a_name: image of starting apperance
• img_b_name: image of end apperance
• img_c_name: image associated with rendering target viewpoint
