Project page | Paper

This repository contains the official authors' implementation associated with the paper "A Hierarchical 3D Gaussian Representation for Real-Time Rendering of Very Large Datasets". We explain the different steps required to run our algorithm. We use a "toy example" of 1500 images organized in 2 chunks to illustrate each step of the method and facilitate reproduction. The full datasets presented in the paper will be released as soon as the data protection process is completed (please stay tuned).

Roadmap

Please note that the code release is currently in alpha. We intend to provide fixes for issues that are experienced by users, due to difficulties with setups and/or environments that we did not test on. The below steps were successfully tested on Windows and Ubuntu 22. We appreciate the documentation of issues by users and will try to address them. Furthermore, there are several points that we will integrate in the coming weeks:

Datasets: We will add links for large-scale datasets that are currently undergoing auditing.
Windows binaries: Once we have sufficiently tested them, we will add pre-compiled binaries for the viewers on Windows.
Direct conversion of legacy 3DGS models: we are testing the conversion of scenes trained with vanilla 3DGS to hierarchical models. Once the quality is assured and we have concluded testing, we will document the necessary steps to do so.
Streaming from disk: currently, data is streamed on-demand to the GPU, however, the viewed dataset must fit into memory. This can become prohibitive in the hierarchy merger and real-time viewer. We will adapt the code to allow dynamic streaming from disk soon.
Reduce real-time viewer resource usage: the storage configuration for the real-time viewer is unoptimized, and so is the speed. Users can define a VRAM budget for the scene, but it is not used as efficiently as it could be. We will iterate towards making sure that higher quality settings can be achieved with lower budgets and better framerates. We will try to make the budget so that it effectively limits the total application VRAM, including framebuffer structs.

cmake --build build -j --target install --config Release

Running the method

Our method has two main stages: Reconstruction, that takes a (usually large) set of images as input and outputs a "merged hierarchy", and Runtime, that displays the full hierarchy in real-time.

Reconstruction has two main steps: 1) Preprocessing the input images and 2) Optimization. We present these in detail next. For each step we have automatic scripts that perform all the required steps, and we also provide details about the individual components.

Dataset

To get started, prepare a dataset or download and extract the toy example. The dataset should have sorted images in a folder per camera in ${DATASET_DIR}/inputs/images/ and optional masks (with .png extension) in ${DATASET_DIR}/inputs/masks/. Masks will be multiplied to the input images and renderings before computing loss.

You can also work from our full scenes. As we provide them calibrated and subdivided, you may skip to Generate monocular depth maps. The datasets:

SmallCity

In the following, replace ${DATASET_DIR} with the path to your dataset or set DATASET_DIR:

# Bash:
DATASET_DIR=<Path to your dataset>

# PowerShell:
${DATASET_DIR} = "<Path to your dataset>"

To skip the reconstruction and only display scenes, download pretrained hierarchies and scaffolds, place them under ${DATASET_DIR}/output/ and follow the viewer instructions. The pretrained hierarchies:

SmallCity

1. Preprocessing

As in 3dgs we need calibrated cameras and a point cloud to train our hierarchies on.

1.1 Calibrating the cameras

The first step is to generate a "global colmap". The following command uses COLMAP's hierarchical mapper, rectify images and masks, and align and scale the sparse reconstruction to facilitate subdivision.

python preprocess/generate_colmap.py --project_dir ${DATASET_DIR}

Using calibrated images

If your dataset already has COLMAP (with 2D and 3D SfM points) and rectified images, they should be placed under ${DATASET_DIR}/camera_calibration/rectified. As they still need alignment, run:

python preprocess/auto_reorient.py --input_path ${DATASET_DIR}/camera_calibration/rectified/sparse --output_path ${DATASET_DIR}/camera_calibration/aligned/sparse/0

This step takes ~ 47 minutes on our example dataset using a RTX A6000, more details on each steps of the script here.

1.2 Generate chunks

Once the "global colmap" generated, it should be split into chunks. We also run a per-chunk bundle adjustment as COLMAP's hierarchical mapper is faster but less accurate (if your global colmap is accurate, you can skip this time consuming step with --skip_bundle_adjustment).

python preprocess/generate_chunks.py --project_dir ${DATASET_DIR}

This step takes ~ 95 minutes on our example dataset using a RTX A6000, more details on each steps of the script here.

note that by using --use_slurm you can refine the chunks in parallel, remember to set your slurm parameters in preprocess/prepare_chunks.slurm (gpu, account, etc ...).

1.3 Generate monocular depth maps

In order to use depth regularization when training each chunks, depth maps must be generated for each rectified image. Then, depth scaling parameters needs to be computed as well, these two steps can be done using:

python preprocess/generate_depth.py --project_dir ${DATASET_DIR}

Project structure

Now you should have the following file structure, it is required for the training part:


project
└── camera_calibration
    ├── aligned
    │   └── sparse/0
    │       ├── images.bin
    │       ├── cameras.bin
    │       └── points3D.bin
    ├── chunks
    │   ├── 0_0
    │   └── 0_1
    │   .
    │   .
    │   .
    │   └── m_n
    │       ├── center.txt
    │       ├── extent.txt
    │       └── sparse/0
    │           ├── cameras.bin
    │           ├── images.bin
    │           ├── points3d.bin
    │           └── depth_params.json
    └── rectified
        ├── images
        ├── depths
        └── masks

2. Optimization

The scene training process is divided into five steps; 1) we first train a global, coarse 3D Gaussian splatting scene ("the scaffold"), then 2) train each chunk independently in parallel, 3) build the hierarchy, 4) optimize the hierarchy in each chunk and finally 5) consolidate the chunks to create the final hierarchy.

Make sure that you correctly set up your environment and built the hierarchy merger/creator

The full_train.py script performs all these steps to train a hierarchy from a preprocessed scene. While training, the progress can be visualized with the original 3DGS remote viewer (build instructions).

python scripts/full_train.py --project_dir ${DATASET_DIR}

Command Line Arguments

--colmap_dir

Input aligned colmap.

--images_dir

Path to rectified images.

--depths_dir

Path to rectified depths.

--masks_dir

Path to rectified masks.

--chunks_dir

Path to input chunks folder.

--env_name

Name the conda env you created earlier.

--output_dir

Path to output dir.

--use_slurm

Flag to enable parallel training using slurm (False by default).

note that by using --use_slurm, chunks will be trained in parallel, to exploit e.g. multi-GPU setups. To control the process, remember to set your slurm parameters in coarse_train.slurm, consolidate.slurm and train_chunk.slurm (gpu, account, etc ...)

This step takes ~ 171 minutes on our example dataset using a RTX A6000, more details on each steps of the script here.

3. Real-time viewer

The real-time viewer is based on SIBR, similar to original 3DGS. For setup, please see here

Running the viewer on a merged hierarchy

The hierarchical real-time viewer is used to vizualize our trained hierarchies. It has a top view that displays the structure from motion point could as well as the input calibrated cameras in green. The hierarchy chunks are also displayed in a wireframe mode.

After installing the viewers, you may run the compiled SIBR_gaussianHierarchyViewer_app in <SIBR install dir>/bin/. Controls are described here.

If not a lot of VRAM is available, add --budget <Budget for the parameters in MB> (by default set to 16000, assuming at least 16 GB of VRAM). Note that this only defines the budget for the SCENE representation. Rendering will require some additional VRAM (up to 1.5 GB) for framebuffer structs. Note that the real-time renderer assumes that CUDA/OpenGL Interop is available on your system (see the original 3DGS documentation for more details).

The interface includes a field for tau (size limit) which defines the desired granularity setting. Note that tau = 0 will try to render the complete dataset (all leaf nodes). If the granularity setting exceeds the available VRAM budget, instead of running out of memory, the viewer will auto-regulate and raise the granularity until the scene can fit inside the defined VRAM budget.

SIBR_viewers/install/bin/SIBR_gaussianHierarchyViewer_app --path ${DATASET_DIR}/camera_calibration/aligned --scaffold ${DATASET_DIR}/output/scaffold/point_cloud/iteration_30000 --model-path ${DATASET_DIR}/output/merged.hier --images-path ${DATASET_DIR}/camera_calibration/rectified/images

Command Line Arguments for Real-Time Viewer

Path to a trained hierarchy.

--iteration

Specifies which of state to load if multiple are available. Defaults to latest available iteration.

--path / -s

Argument to override model's path to source dataset.

--rendering-size

Takes two space separated numbers to define the resolution at which real-time rendering occurs, 1200 width by default. Note that to enforce an aspect that differs from the input images, you need --force-aspect-ratio too.

--images-path

Path to rectified input images to be viewed in the top view.

--device

Index of CUDA device to use for rasterization if multiple are available, 0 by default.

--budget

Details on the different steps

Generating colmap

note that in our experiments we used colmap 3.9.1 with cuda support
the parameters of each colmap commands as well as our scripts are the ones we used in the example dataset.
More details on these parameters can be found here

Create a project folder and create the required folders to have the following file structure:

project
├── camera_calibration
│   ├── aligned
│   ├── rectified
│   └── unrectified
└── output

Generate a database.db in the unrectified subfolder by extracting features from images:
Input image folder should be organised by subfolders per camera.

cd project/unrectified
colmap feature_extractor --database_path database.db --image_path <path to images> --ImageReader.single_camera_per_folder 1 --ImageReader.default_focal_length_factor 0.5 --ImageReader.camera_model OPENCV

Command Line Arguments

Create a custom matching.txt file using:
```
cd hierarchical_3d_gaussians
python preprocess/make_colmap_custom_matcher.py --image_path <path to images> --output_path <matching.txt file path> 
```
<matching.txt file path> will contain pairs of camera indices that are close using the image order and the gps data when it is available.

Command Line Arguments

--n_gps_neighbours

Number of closest neighbors to add if gps data is available (25 by default).

--n_loop_closure_match_per_view

Number of matches to add to each camera provided in [loop_matches], it is not used when no custom [loop_matches] is provided (5 by default).

--image_path

Path to input images folder.

--output_path

Path to output file with the image pairs to match.

--n_seq_matches_per_view

For each image, match with the next [n_seq_matches_per_view] images of the other cameras (0 by default).

--n_quad_matches_per_view

For each image, add [n_quad_matches_per_view] matches that will range from $image$ to $image+2^{\text{n_quad_matches_per_view}}$ images of the other cameras (10 by default).

--loop_matches

Custom matches that can be added by hand (None by default).

The previously created matching.txt file will be used with the feature matching:

cd ${DATASET_DIR}/unrectified
colmap matches_importer --database_path <database.db> --match_list_path <matching.txt file path>

Command Line Arguments

Launch the hierarchical mapper to create the scene colmap:

note that this step will take a lot more time than the previous steps, it took ~39 minutes on the example dataset.
```
colmap hierarchical_mapper --database_path <database.db> --image_path <path to images> --output_path <sparse> --Mapper.ba_global_function_tolerance=0.000001 
```
Command Line Arguments
Remove floating cameras and feature points that don't have sfm points, to make the colmap lighter:
```
cd hierarchical_3d_gaussians
python preprocess/simplify_images.py --base_dir ${DATASET_DIR}/unrectified/sparse/0
```
Command Line Arguments

--base_dir

Path to a colmap folder having images, cameras and points3D files.

--mult_min_dist

Points at distance > [mult_min_dist]*median_dist_neighbors are removed (10 by default).

--model_type

Colmap model type, can be either bin or txt (bin by default).
Undistort calibrated cameras, resulting images will be used during training:
```
cd ${DATASET_DIR}
colmap image_undistorter --image_path <path to images> --input_path <unrectified/sparse/0> --output_path <rectified> --output_type COLMAP --max_image_size 2048
```
If alpha masks are used, they should be undistorted the same way as images. Please find instructions on how to do it in the generate_colmap.py script.

Command Line Arguments
Align and scale the rectified colmap:
The rectified colmap is aligned and scaled to be metric so that it can be easily cut into chunks later.
```
cd hierarchical_3d_gaussians
python preprocess/auto_reorient.py --input_path <project_dir/rectified/sparse> --output_path <project_dir/aligned>
```
Command Line Arguments

--input_path

--output_path

Path to output colmap dir.

--upscale

Custom upscaling factor, is automatically computed if not set (0 by default).

--target_med_dist

Median distance of all calibrated cameras to their 3D points for the scene to be roughly metric, experimentally found. Ignored if upscale is set (20 by default)

--model_type

Colmap model type, can be either bin or txt (bin by default).

Generating chunks

The last preprocessing step is to divide the colmap into chunks, each chunk will have its own colmap that will be refined with two rounds of bundle adjustment and triangulation:

Cut the calibration under project/camera_calibration/aligned into chunks, each chunk has its own colmap:
```
python preprocess/make_chunk.py --base_dir <project/aligned/sparse/0> --images_dir <project/rectified/images> --output_path <project/raw_chunks>
```

--min_n_cams

Min nb of cameras in each chunk (100 by default).

--max_n_cams

Max nb of cameras in each chunk (2000 by default).

--output_path

Path to output chunks folder.

--add_far_cams

Add cameras that are far from the chunk (False by default).

--model_type

Colmap model type, can be either bin or txt (bin by default).
Refine each chunk by applying two rounds of triangulation and bundle adjustment:
```
## do this for each chunk
python preprocess/prepare_chunk.py --raw_chunk <path to raw chunk> --out_chunk <path to output chunk> --images_dir <project/rectified/images> --depths_dir <project/rectified/depths> --preprocess_dir <path to hierarchical_gaussians/preprocess_dir>
```

Path to depths.

--raw_chunk

Path to the unrefined chunk.

--out_chunk

Path to the output refined chunk.

Monocular depth maps

Make sure to have the depth estimator weights.

Generate depth maps (should run for each subfolder in `images/`)

Using Depth Anything V2 (prefered):

cd submodules/Depth-Anything-V2
python run.py --encoder vitl --pred-only --grayscale --img-path [path_to_input_images_dir] --outdir [path_to_output_depth_dir]

Using DPT:

cd submodules/DPT
python run_monodepth.py -t dpt_large -i [path_to_input_images_dir] -o [path_to_output_depth_dir]

Generate depth_params.json file from the depth maps created on step 1.

this file will be used for the depth regularization for single chunk training. It needs to be generated for each chunk.
```
cd ../../
python preprocess/make_depth_scale.py --base_dir [path to colmap] --depths_dir [path to output depth dir]
```

Training steps

Make sure that you correctly set up repositories and environments

Coarse optimization
To allow consistent training of all chunks, we create a basic scaffold and skybox for all ensuing steps:

python train_coarse.py -s <path to project/aligned> -i <../rectified/images> --skybox_num 100000 --position_lr_init 0.00016 --position_lr_final 0.0000016 --model_path <path to output scaffold>

Single chunk training
It is recommended to train using depth regularization to have better results, especially if your scene contains textureless surfaces such as roads. Make sure you generated depth maps

python -u train_single.py -s [project/chunks/chunk_name] --model_path [output/chunks/chunk_name] -i [project/rectified/images] -d [project/rectified/depths] --alpha_masks [project/rectified/masks] --scaffold_file [output/scaffold/point_cloud/iteration_30000] --skybox_locked --bounds_file [project/chunks/chunk_name]

Per chunk hierarchy building
Make sure you followed the steps to generate the hierarchy creator executable file. Now we will generate a hierarchy in each chunk:

# Linux: 
submodules/gaussianhierarchy/build/GaussianHierarchyCreator [path to output chunk point_cloud.ply] [path to chunk colmap] [path to output chunk] [path to scaffold]

# Windows:
submodules/gaussianhierarchy/build/Release/GaussianHierarchyCreator.exe [path to output chunk point_cloud.ply] [path to chunk colmap] [path to output chunk] [path to scaffold]

Single chunk post-optimization

python -u train_post.py -s [project/chunks/chunk_name] --model_path [output/chunks/chunk_name] --hierarchy [output/chunks/chunk_name/hierarchy_name.hier]  --iterations 15000 --feature_lr 0.0005 --opacity_lr 0.01 --scaling_lr 0.001 --save_iterations -1 -i [project/rectified/images] --alpha_masks [project/rectified/masks] --scaffold_file [output/scaffold/point_cloud/iteration_30000] --skybox_locked --bounds_file [project/chunks/chunk_name]

Consolidation Make sure you followed the steps to generate the hierarchy merger executable file. Now we will consolidate and merge all the chunk hierarchies:

# Linux:
submodules/gaussianhierarchy/build/GaussianHierarchyMerger [path to output/trained_chunks] "0" [path to chunk colmap] [path to output merged.hier] [list of all the chunk names] 

# Windows:
submodules/gaussianhierarchy/build/Release/GaussianHierarchyMerger.exe [path to output/trained_chunks] "0" [path to chunk colmap] [path to output merged.hier] [list of all the chunk names]

Slurm parameters

The beginning of each .slurm script must have the following parameters:

#!/bin/bash

#SBATCH --account=xyz@v100      # your slurm account (ex: xyz@v100)
#SBATCH --constraint=v100-32g   # the gpu you require (ex: v100-32g)
#SBATCH --ntasks=1              # number of process you require
#SBATCH --nodes=1               # number of nodes you require 
#SBATCH --gres=gpu:1            # number of gpus you require
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=10      # number of cpus per task you require
#SBATCH --time=01:00:00         # maximal allocation time

Note that the slurm scripts have not been thouroughly tested.

Evaluations

We use a test.txt file that is read by the dataloader and splits into train/test sets when --eval is passed to the training scripts. This file should be present in sprase/0/ for each chunk and for the aligned "global colmap" (if applicable).

Single chunk

The single chunks we used for evaluation:

SmallCity

To run the evaluations on a chunk:

python train_single.py -s ${CHUNK_DIR} --model_path ${OUTPUT_DIR} -d depths --exposure_lr_init 0.0 --eval --skip_scale_big_gauss

# Windows: build/Release/GaussianHierarchyCreator 
submodules/gaussianhierarchy/build/GaussianHierarchyCreator ${OUTPUT_DIR}/point_cloud/iteration_30000/point_cloud.ply ${CHUNK_DIR}  ${OUTPUT_DIR} 

python train_post.py -s ${CHUNK_DIR} --model_path ${OUTPUT_DIR} --hierarchy ${OUTPUT_DIR}/hierarchy.hier --iterations 15000 --feature_lr 0.0005 --opacity_lr 0.01 --scaling_lr 0.001 --eval

python render_hierarchy.py -s ${CHUNK_DIR} --model_path ${OUTPUT_DIR} --hierarchy ${OUTPUT_DIR}/hierarchy.hier_opt --out_dir ${OUTPUT_DIR} --eval

Large scenes

Ensure that the test.txt is present in all sparse/0/ folders. preprocess/copy_file_to_chunks.py can help copying it to each chunk. Then, the scene can be optimized with eval:

python scripts/full_train.py --project_dir ${DATASET_DIR} --extra_training_args '--exposure_lr_init 0.0 --eval'

The following renders the test set from the optimized hierarchy. Note that the current implementation loads the full hierarchy in GPU memory.

python render_hierarchy.py -s ${DATASET_DIR} --model_path ${DATASET_DIR}/output --hierarchy ${DATASET_DIR}/output/merged.hier --out_dir ${DATASET_DIR}/output/renders --eval --scaffold_file ${DATASET_DIR}/output/scaffold/point_cloud/iteration_30000

Exposure optimization

We generally disable exposure optimization for evaluations. If you want to use it, you can optimize exposure on the left half of the test image and evaluate on their right half. To achieve this, remove --exposure_lr_init 0.0 from the commands above and add --train_test_exp to all training scripts.
