Neuralangelo vs Bakedangelo: differences #261

Closed davidceka closed 9 months ago

davidceka commented 9 months ago

Hi, I'm working on some surface reconstruction tasks and I've wondered what is the difference between neuralangelo and bakedangelo, if any of you could sum it up in some points. I also haven't found any paper about bakedangelo so far, only neuralangelo and bakedsdf individually.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, bakedangelo has a better background modeling where we use proposal networks for both SDF and the background NeRF model. And since we are using proposal networks, the sampling is more efficient and can be trained with only a singel GPU instead of 8 GPUs in neuralangelo.

Thanks for answering.

Is there any paper or resource for bakedangelo i can read more closely and which I can quote? I'm planning on writing a thesis work and I would like to cite all the resources I can. I would like to justify the usage of bakedangelo over typical neuralangelo watching also various metrics that I'm evaluating.

Hi, we don't have a paper for sdfstudio. You can check the code for details. You can simply cite sdfstudio :)

Thanks for the help then, I most definitely will!
