instant-ngp and tensorf models are currently not handling training on transparent images properly as other models do, resulting in worse performance on synthetic datasets.
Currently, the alpha channel is simply being removed which prevents proper handling of background rendering which
blend_background_for_loss_computation
is supposed to handle for support of rendering random background color during training etc.This PR just changes the code to pass the full image to be consistent with other models:
