Volume Rendering Digest (for NeRF)
Neural Radiance Fields employ simple volume rendering as a way to overcome the challenges of differentiating through ray-triangle intersections by leveraging a probabilistic notion of visibility. This is achieved by assuming the scene is composed by a cloud of light-emitting particles whose density changes in space. This technical report summarizes the derivations for differentiable volume rendering. It is a condensed version of previous reports, but rewritten in the context of NeRF, and adopting its commonly used notation.
