Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes accessing a number of pictures of an object, constructing a modeling volume for three-dimensional modeling of the object by processing the number of pictures using a machine-learning framework, where the modeling volume is associated with a number of color and opacity information that are associated with a number of regions in the modeling volume, and rendering an image of the object from a view-point using the modeling volume, where each pixel of the image is rendered by projecting a virtual ray from the view-point and through the modeling volume, determining one or more of the number of regions in the modeling volume intersected by the virtual ray, and determining a color and an opacity of the pixel based on an accumulation of the color and opacity information associated with the one or more of the number of regions intersected by the virtual ray.
