Recent advances in neural scene representations enable photorealistic novel-view synthesis, yet most methods remain tightly coupled to a single rendering paradigm, limiting their versatility and integration with conventional graphics workflows. We introduce Floating Radiance Networks (FlaRe), a neural scene representation combining explicit ray-traceable geometry with continuous neural radiance functions.

Time-varying implicit neural representations (INRs) provide a compact representation of scientific volumes and, for modalities such as dynamic X-ray computed tomography (CT), are often the only practical way to represent the data. However, interactive volume rendering of INRs is challenging, as cheap memory lookups are replaced by expensive neural inferences, hindering the performance.

Training and evaluating spatial reasoning in embodied agents requires diverse environments that are both geometrically faithful and semantically queryable. Synthetic simulators offer ground truth semantics but sacrifice realism; simulators based on reconstructions of real-world environments have realistic appearance but lack ground truth semantics by default.
Reconstructing 3D shapes from a single image remains a fundamental yet challenging problem in computer vision. Traditional monocular 3D generation pipelines typically synthesize multiple views from a single input image before applying Neural Radiance Field (NeRF)-based reconstruction.
Gaussian Splatting has been recently explored for satellite 3D reconstruction, demonstrating flexibility and efficiency in representing radiometrically diverse satellite scenes. However, the limited top viewpoint of satellite imagery results in insufficient supervision on building facades, leaving surface holes and degraded visual fidelity.
Projector-camera (ProCams) systems achieve active scene perception and controllable appearance manipulation via structured illumination, serving as a core infrastructure for spatial augmented reality, projection mapping, and surface reflectance acquisition. Existing inverse-rendering methods for ProCams deliver high-fidelity results but rely on time-consuming per-scene optimization, while mainstream feed-forward 3D reconstruction models produce baked appearance that cannot adapt to spatially varying projector illumination.
