We address the task of view synthesis, which can be posed as recovering a
rendering function that renders new views from a set of existing images. In
many recent works such as NeRF, this rendering function is parameterized using
implicit neural representations of scene geometry. Implicit neural
representations have achieved impressive visual quality but have drawbacks in
computational efficiency. In this work, we propose a new approach that performs
view synthesis using point clouds. It is the first point-based method …
