A scene reconstruction system renders images of a scene with high-quality geometry and appearance and supports view synthesis, relighting, and scene editing. Given a set of input images of a scene, the scene reconstruction system trains a network to learn a volume representation of the scene that includes separate geometry and reflectance parameters. Using the volume representation, the scene reconstruction system can render images of the scene under arbitrary viewing (view synthesis) and lighting (relighting) locations. Additionally, the scene reconstruction system can render images that change the reflectance of objects in the scene (scene editing).
