Every lens leaves a blur signature—a hidden fingerprint in every photo.
In our new #TPAMI paper, we show how to learn it fast (5 mins of capture!) with Lens Blur Fields ✨
With it, we can tell apart ‘identical’ phones by their optics, deblur images, and render realistic blurs.
Our #SGP25 work studies a simple and effective way to uniformly sample implicit surfaces by casting rays. (1/9)
