This software project accompanies the research paper, NeILF++: Inter-Reflectable Light Fields for Geometry and Material Estimation (ICCV 2023) and can be used to reproduce the results in the paper.
NeILF++ is a differentiable rendering framework for joint geometry, material and lighting estimation from multi-view images. More details can be found in the project webpage. If you find this project useful for your research, please cite:

Download the synthetic dataset, the preprocessed DTU dataset and the HDR dataset from here. Note that for the synthetic dataset, all scenes shares the same geometry files and the BRDF ground truths. We only provide the geometry files and the BRDF GT in synthetic_city, and users may structure the input of another scene by substituting the image folder (synthetic_city/inputs/images) to another input image folder.
The pretrained checkpoints for the experiments in the paper are also in the link.
Download the datasets used in the paper (synthetic, DTU, and HDR). Choose one scene and run the following:
python training/train.py DATA_FOLDER OUTPUT_FOLDER --config_path CONFIG_PATH --phase geo,mat,joint
Where DATA_FOLDER is the structured input data folder, OUTPUT_FOLDER is the output folder, and CONFIG_PATH is the path to the config file of all parameters.
We provide seperate configs for synthetic/HDR/DTU datasets (see provided configs/ in the codebase). If you encounter the out-of-memory issue, please decrease the train.num_pixel_samples in the config file.
Make sure you have correct texture atlas input before adding --export_brdf. Results will be stored in OUTPUT_FOLDER/evaluation:
python evaluation/evaluate.py DATA_FOLDER OUTPUT_FOLDER --config_path CONFIG_PATH --export_brdf
You can also pass --eval_nvs for novel view rendering evaluation and --eval_brdf for BRDF quality evaluation (if GT BRDF is provided). The PSNR scores will be recorded and stored in OUTPUT_FOLDER/evaluation/report_evaluation.json.
Input data should be structured into the following:
.
├── inputs
│ ├── images
│ ├── position_maps (optional)
│ ├── depth_maps (optional)
│ ├── normal_maps (optional)
│ ├── model (optional)
│ │ ├── components of a textured mesh (synthetic dataset)
│ │ └── oriented_pcd.ply (other datasets)
│ └── sfm_scene.json
│
└── ground_truths (optional)
└── materials
├── kd
├── roughness
└── metallic
The sfm_scene.json file is used to stored the metadata and the SfM result of a scene. Please refer to load_cams_from_sfmscene in utilts/io.py for details.
- Camera intrinsics are stored in
sfm_scene['camera_track_map']['images']['INDEX']['intrinsic'] - Camera extrinsics are stored in
sfm_scene['camera_track_map']['images']['INDEX']['extrinsic'] - Image list are stored in
sfm_scene['image_list']['file_paths']. (image index -> image path) - The bounding box transformation is stored in
sfm_scene['bbox']['transform'], which can transform the eight bounding box corners to normalized points at{1/-1, 1/-1, 1/-1}. It is used to compute the scale mat for coordinate normalization. - Other fields could be ignored.
The image names should be stored in sfm_scene['image_list']['file_paths']. You can use .jpg and .png formats for LDR inputs, or .exr and .tiff formats for HDR inputs.
Geometry input is required by the synthetic dataset. The geometry input should be provided as either the rendered position map at each view (in inputs/position_maps) or the rendered depth map at each view (in inputs/depth_maps). For other datasets, an oriented point cloud is preferred (in inputs/model/oriented_pcd.ply).
The position atlas should be provided for exporting BRDF texture maps. (in inputs/model/pos_tex, see sample data for details)
