This is a Plain English Papers summary of a research paper called AI Breakthrough Turns Black and White Photos into Colorized 3D Scenes You Can Explore. If you like these kinds of analysis, you should join AImodels.fyi or follow us on Twitter.
Overview
- New method to colorize 3D scenes from grayscale multi-view images
- Works with Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) and Gaussian Splatting (3DGS)
- Uses knowledge distillation to transfer color information
- No additional computational costs during inference
- Effective for both indoor and outdoor scenes
- Applications in IR imaging and legacy grayscale photos
Plain English Explanation
Think of watching an old black and white movie where you want to add color. Now imagine doing that for a 3D scene where you can move around and view it from different angles. That's what this research tackles.
The researchers developed a way to take multiple black and white ph...
