Abstract
Abstract Recent advances in Neural Radiance Fields enable the capture of scenes with motion. However, editing the motion is hard; no existing method allows editing beyond the space of motion existing in the original video, nor editing based on physics. We present the first approach that allows physically‐based editing of motion in a scene captured with a single hand‐held video camera, containing vibrating or periodic motion. We first introduce a Lagrangian representation, representing motion as the displacement of particles, which is learned while training a radiance field. We use these particles to create a continuous representation of motion over the sequence, which is then used to perform a modal analysis of the motion thanks to a Fourier transform on the particle displacement over time. The resulting extracted modes allow motion synthesis, and easy editing of the motion, while inheriting the ability for free‐viewpoint synthesis in the captured 3D scene from the radiance field. We demonstrate our new method on synthetic and real captured scenes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
