Recently, single-image SVBRDF capture is formulated as a regression problem, which uses a network to infer four SVBRDF maps from a flash-lit image. However, the accuracy is still not satisfactory since previous approaches usually adopt endto-end inference strategies. To mitigate the challenge, we propose “auxiliary renderings” as the intermediate regression targets, through which we divide the original end-to-end regression task into several easier sub-tasks, thus achieving better inference accuracy. Our contributions are threefold. First, we design three (or two pairs of) auxiliary renderings and summarize the motivations behind the designs. By our design, the auxiliary images are bumpiness-flattened or highlight-removed, containing disentangled visual cues about the final SVBRDF maps and can be easily transformed to the final maps. Second, to help estimate the auxiliary targets from the input image, we propose two mask images including a bumpiness mask and a highlight mask. Our method thus first infers mask images, then with the help of the mask images infers auxiliary renderings, and finally transforms the auxiliary images to SVBRDF maps. Third, we propose backbone UNets to infer mask images, and gated deformable UNets for estimating auxiliary targets. Thanks to the well designed networks and intermediate images, our method outputs better SVBRDF maps than previous approaches, validated by the extensive comparisonal and ablation experiments. IEEE

Since the preparation of labeled datafor training semantic segmentation networks of pointclouds is a time-consuming process, weakly supervisedapproaches have been introduced to learn fromonly a small fraction of data. These methods aretypically based on learning with contrastive losses whileautomatically deriving per-point pseudo-labels from asparse set of user-annotated labels. In this paper, ourkey observation is that the selection of which samplesto annotate is as important as how these samplesare used for training. Thus, we introduce a methodfor weakly supervised segmentation of 3D scenes thatcombines self-training with active learning. Activelearning selects points for annotation that are likelyto result in improvements to the trained model, whileself-training makes efficient use of the user-providedlabels for learning the model. We demonstrate thatour approach leads to an effective method that providesimprovements in scene segmentation over previouswork and baselines, while requiring only a few userannotations.
