AI can only recreate 3D scenes from photographs

Google researchers have unveiled detailed 3D scenes of famous landmarks around the world. They

We used photos that we downloaded from the Internet and processed them using machine learning.

On the project's GitHub page, researchersshared 3D scenes of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, the Basilica of the Sacre Coeur in Paris and the Trevi Fountain in Rome. Machine learning has created detailed 3D rendering from this material, in which you can move the view, and the external scene changes with lighting effects.

The researchers explained that their algorithm canface difficulties when using images with "unusual parameters". Photos are not processed correctly in poor light, incorrect exposure, or post-processing. In addition, images from the Internet often contain moving objects - for example, people or cars. They can also interfere with the algorithm.

“Two photographers can stand in one place andtake a snapshot of the same sight, but the algorithm will process one frame correctly, and spoil the second. We need to refine the AI ​​to make it work correctly, ”the researchers noted.

The resulting model may contain glitches or other errors. Researchers are developing special extensions that soften the processing by AI, which leads to better results.
