We propose MomentsNeRF, a novel framework for one- and few-shot neural rendering that predicts a neural representation of a 3D scene using Orthogonal Moments. Our architecture offers a new transfer learning method to train on multi-scenes and incorporate a per-scene optimization using one or a few images at test time. Our approach is the first to successfully harness features extracted from Gabor and Zernike moments, seamlessly integrating them into the NeRF architecture. We show that MomentsNeRF performs better in synthesizing images with complex textures and shapes, achieving a significant noise reduction, artifact elimination, and completing the missing parts compared to the recent one- and few-shot neural rendering frameworks. Extensive experiments on the DTU and Shapenet datasets show that MomentsNeRF improves the state-of-the-art by {3.39\;dB\;PSNR}, 11.1% SSIM, 17.9% LPIPS, and 8.3% DISTS metrics. Moreover, it outperforms state-of-the-art performance for both novel view synthesis and single-image 3D view reconstruction.
