    Abstract: Systems and methods for training a machine-learned model are disclosed herein. The method can include obtaining, by a processor, a plurality of images, each image having a set of parameter values comprising values for a plurality of camera parameters and determining a covariance matrix for the plurality of camera parameters with respect to a plurality of projected points generated via evaluation of a projection function. The method can also include performing a whitening algorithm to identify a preconditioning matrix that, when applied to the sets of parameter values, results in the covariance matrix being approximately equal to an identity matrix and performing an optimization algorithm on the plurality of sets of parameter values, Performing the optimization algorithm can include applying an inverse of the preconditioning matrix to the plurality of sets of parameters in a forward prediction pass and applying the preconditioning matrix in a backward gradient pass.

    Abstract: Techniques of image synthesis using a neural radiance field (NeRF) includes generating a deformation model of movement experienced by a subject in a non-rigidly deforming scene. For example, when an image synthesis system uses NeRFs, the system takes as input multiple poses of subjects for training data. In contrast to conventional NeRFs, the technical solution first expresses the positions of the subjects from various perspectives in an observation frame. The technical solution then involves deriving a deformation model, i.e., a mapping between the observation frame and a canonical frame in which the subject's movements are taken into account. This mapping is accomplished using latent deformation codes for each pose that are determined using a multilayer perceptron (MLP). A NeRF is then derived from positions and casted ray directions in the canonical frame using another MLP. New poses for the subject may then be derived using the NeRF.
