PC-NeRF: Parent-Child Neural Radiance Fields under Partial Sensor Data Loss in Autonomous Driving Environments
Xiuzhong Hu, Guangming Xiong, Zheng Zang, Peng Jia, Yuxuan Han, Junyi Ma
Reconstructing large-scale 3D scenes is essential for autonomous vehicles, especially when partial sensor data is lost. Although the recently developed neural radiance fields (NeRF) have shown compelling results in implicit representations, the large-scale 3D scene reconstruction using partially lost LiDAR point cloud data still needs to be explored. To bridge this gap, we propose a novel 3D scene reconstruction framework called parent-child neural radiance field (PC-NeRF). The framework comprises two modules, the parent NeRF and the child NeRF, to simultaneously optimize scene-level, segment-level, and point-level scene representations. Sensor data can be utilized more efficiently by leveraging the segment-level representation capabilities of child NeRFs, and an approximate volumetric representation of the scene can be quickly obtained even with limited observations. With extensive experiments, our proposed PC-NeRF is proven to achieve high-precision 3D reconstruction in large-scale scenes. Moreover, PC-NeRF can effectively tackle situations where partial sensor data is lost and has high deployment efficiency with limited training time. Our approach implementation and the pre-trained models will be available at https://github.com/biter0088/pc-nerf.
