Geometry Field Splatting with Gaussian Surfels

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Kaiwen Jiang, Venkataram Sivaram, Cheng Peng, Ravi Ramamoorthi, | Summary: Geometric reconstruction of opaque surfaces from images is a longstanding challenge in computer vision, with renewed interest from volumetric view synthesis algorithms using radiance fields. We leverage the geometry field proposed in recent work for stochastic opaque […]

Inflation with the Trace Anomaly Action and Primordial Black Holes

Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Gregory Gabadadze, David N. Spergel, Giorgi Tukhashvili, , | Summary: We study inflation in a recently proposed gravitational effective field theory describing the trace anomaly. The theory requires an additional scalar which is massless in the early universe. This scalar — referenced as an anomalyon — […]
