Abstract

A method for dynamic modeling and manipulation of multi-object scenes is described. The method includes using object-centric neural implicit scattering functions (OSFs) as object representations in a model-predictive control (MPC) framework for the multi-object scenes. The method also includes modeling a per-object light transport to enable compositional scene re-rendering under object rearrangement and varying lighting conditions. The method further includes applying inverse parameter estimation and graph neural network (GNN) dynamics models to estimate initial object poses and a light position in the multi-object scene. The method also includes manipulating an object perceived in the multi-object scene according to the applying of the inverse parameter estimation and the GNN dynamics models.
