PPISP Scene→Sim Ablation — OFF vs ON

Evaluation renders from a single controlled ablation of NVIDIA's PPISP inside Forenly AI's Scene→Sim (real-scene → simulation) pipeline.

What this is

The same real 3-camera capture reconstructed with the same 30,000 training iterations, changing exactly one variable — PPISP off vs on.

Run Result
PPISP off hazy, washed-out blur; geometry and colour collapse
PPISP on sharp, colour-correct, stable — +9.5 dB PSNR

Why it matters

In Scene→Sim, reconstruction fidelity is the training ground: a blurry scene is a broken one — geometry the robot can't trust, textures the policy can't read. PPISP targets the photometric artifacts (lighting/colour drift) that break radiance-field and Gaussian-splatting reconstructions; it works across 3DGS, 3DGUT and NeRFs.

Methods benchmarked in this line of work: PPISP · 3DGRUT · 2DGS · GOF.

Method / credit

PPISP is NVIDIA's method for physically-plausible compensation of photometric variations in radiance fields. This card documents an applied ablation, not the original method.
