Abstract

A new type of deep picture and video production technique called neural rendering allows for explicit or implicit management of scene characteristics like lighting, camera settings, position, geometry, appearance, and semantic content. It integrates generative machine-learning techniques with physical knowledge from computer graphics to produce programmable and photo-realistic outputs. The aim of this talk was to give insights into how neural rendering, with a discussion of the social implications of this technology and investigate open research problems.
