Failed to use catacaustics/refnerf related config

[Learningm]

Hi, I am testing my custom data(with reflective attribute) using llff_360.yaml dataset format, since I use the preprocessing code in LLFF repo to generate poses_bounds.npy file. My scene is object-centric scene, inward facing 360 type so I tried the model_config with '_sphere' postfix.

I tried experiment/training=donerf_tensorf, experiment/model=donerf_sphere and it's good, the training process is successful. But the result seems not very satisfied and I want to try another config.

I found there supports catacaustics dataset, then I set experiment/training=catacaustics_tensorf, experiment/model=catacaustics_sphere. But the training process failed at the beginning with this error:
(I also try the refnerf_sphere config, same error)

Could you give some suggestions to fix this error? Thanks.

Hi! I ran some experiments on the Neural Point Catacaustics dataset a while back, but more recent changes may have deprecated the code in catacaustics.py, or the configs for Neural Point Catacaustics.

Got it. It seems necessary for debugging on the Neural Point Catacaustics dataset myself. Thanks.
