Neural radiance fields (NeRFs) produce state-of-the-art view synthesis
results. However, they are slow to render, requiring hundreds of network
evaluations per pixel to approximate a volume rendering integral. Baking NeRFs
into explicit data structures enables efficient rendering, but results in a
large increase in memory footprint and, in many cases, a quality reduction. In
this paper, we propose a novel neural light field representation that, in
contrast, is compact and directly predicts integrated radiance along rays. Our
method supports rendering …
