We propose a novel-view augmentation (NOVA) strategy to train NeRFs for photo-realistic 3D composition of dynamic objects in a static scene. Compared to prior work, our framework significantly reduces blending artifacts when inserting multiple dynamic objects into a 3D scene at novel views and times; achieves comparable PSNR without the need for additional ground truth modalities like optical flow; and overall provides ease, flexibility, and scalability in neural composition. Our codebase is on GitHub.
