View synthesis

In computer graphics, view synthesis, or novel view synthesis, is a task which consists of generating images of a specific subject or scene from a specific point of view, when the only available information are pictures taken from different point of views.

Such task was only recently (late 2010s - early 2020s) tackled with significative success, mostly as a result of advances in machine learning. Notable successful methods are Neural radiance fields, and 3D gaussian splatting.

Applications of view synthesis are numerous, one of them being Free viewpoint television.
