Alpha Invariance: On Inverse Scaling Between Distance and Volume Density in Neural Radiance Fields

Scale-ambiguity in 3D scene dimensions leads to magnitude-ambiguity of volumetric densities in neural radiance fields i.e. the densities double when scene size is halved and vice versa. We call this property alpha invariance. For NeRFs to better maintain alpha invariance we recommend 1) parameterizi…
