## Datasets
It is recommended to symlink the dataset root to `$PROJECT/data`.
If your folder structure is different, you may need to change the corresponding paths in config files.

## Installation
We provide detailed [installation tutorial](docs/en/installation.md) for XRNeRF, users can install from scratch or use provided [dockerfile](docker/Dockerfile).
It is recommended to start by creating a docker image:
```shell
docker build -f ./docker/Dockerfile --rm -t xrnerf .
```
For more information, please follow our [installation tutorial](docs/en/installation.md).
## Build a Model
### Basic Concepts
In XRNeRF, model components are basically categorized as 4 types.
- network: the whole nerf model pipeline, usually contains a embedder, mlp and render.
- embedder: convert point-position and viewdirection data into embedded data, embedder can be function only or with trainable paramters.
- mlp: use the output of embedder as input, and output raw data (the rgb and density value at sampled position) for render, usually contains FC layers.
- render: receive mlp's raw data, output the rgb value at a pixel.
Following some basic pipelines (e.g., `NerfNetwork`), the model structure
can be customized through config files with no pains.
### Write a new network
To write a new nerf network, you need to inherit from `BaseNerfNetwork`,
which defines the following abstract methods.
- `train_step()`: forward method of the training mode.
- `val_step()`: forward method of the testing mode.
[NerfNetwork](xrnerf/models/networks/nerf.py) is a good example which show how to do that.
To be specific, if we want to implement some new components, there are several things to do.
1. create a new file in `xrnerf/models/networks/my_networks.py`.
```python
from ..builder import NETWORKS
from .nerf import NerfNetwork
@NETWORKS.register_module()
class MyNerfNetwork(NerfNetwork):
def __init__(self, cfg, mlp=None, mlp_fine=None, render=None):
super().__init__(cfg, mlp, mlp_fine, render)
def forward(self, data):
....
def train_step(self, data, optimizer, **kwargs):
....
def val_step(self, data, optimizer=None, **kwargs):
....
```
2. Import the module in `xrnerf/models/networks/__init__.py`
```python
from .my_networks import MyNerfNetwork
```
3. modify the [config file](configs/nerf/nerf_blender_base01.py) from
```python
model = dict(
type='NerfNetwork',
....
```
to
```python
model = dict(
type='MyNerfNetwork',
....
```
To implement some new components for embedder/mlp/render, procedure is similar to above.
* To write a new nerf embedder, you need to inherit from `nn.Module` or `BaseEmbedder`, and define the `forward` method. [BaseEmbedder](xrnerf/models/embedders/base.py) is a good example.
* To write a new nerf mlp, you need to inherit from `nn.Module` or `BaseMLP`, and define the `forward` method. [NerfMLP](xrnerf/models/mlps/nerf_mlp.py) is a good example.
* To write a new nerf render, you need to inherit from `nn.Module` or `BaseRender`, and define the `forward` method. [NerfRender](xrnerf/models/renders/nerf_render.py) is a good example.
## Train a Model
### Iteration Controls
XRNeRF use `mmcv.runner.IterBasedRunner` to control training, and `mmcv.runner.EpochBasedRunner` to for test mode.
In training mode, the `max_iters` in config file decide how many iters.
In test mode, `max_iters` is forced to change to 1, which represents only 1 epoch to test.
### Train
```shell
python run_nerf.py --config configs/nerf/nerf_blender_base01.py --dataname lego
```
Arguments are:
- `--config`: config file path.
- `--dataname`: select which data under dataset directory.
### Test
We have provided model ``iter_200000.pth`` for test, download from [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/147wRy3TFlRVrZdWqAgHNak7s6jiMZA1-/view?usp=sharing)
```shell
python run_nerf.py --config configs/nerf/nerf_blender_base01.py --dataname lego --test_only --load_from iter_200000.pth
```
Arguments are:
- `--config`: config file path.
- `--dataname`: select which data under dataset directory.
- `--test_only`: influence on whole testset once.
- `--load_from`: load which checkpoint to test, this will overwrite the original `load_from` in config file to for convenience.
