• Abstract: The movie and video game industries have adopted photogrammetry as a way to create digital 3D assets from multiple photographs of a real-world scene. But photogrammetry algorithms typically output an RGB texture atlas of the scene that only serves as visual guidance for skilled artists to create material maps suitable for physically-based rendering. We present a learning-based approach that automatically produces digital assets ready for physically-based rendering, by estimating approximate material maps from multi-view captures of indoor scenes that are used with retopologized geometry. We base our approach on a material estimation Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) that we execute on each input image. We leverage the view-dependent visual cues provided by the multiple observations of the scene by gathering, for each pixel of a given image, the color of the corresponding point in other images. This image-space CNN provides us with an ensemble of predictions, which we merge in texture space as the last step of our approach. Our results demonstrate that the recovered assets can be directly used for physically-based rendering and editing of real indoor scenes from any viewpoint and novel lighting. Our method generates approximate material maps in a fraction of time compared to the closest previous solutions.

  Inferring scene geometry from images via Structure from Motion is a long-standing and fundamental problem in computer vision. With the popularity of neural radiance fields (NeRFs), implicit representations also became popular for scene completion. We propose to fuse the scene reconstruction from multiple images and distill this knowledge into a more accurate single-view scene reconstruction.

  We present an approach that produces a simple, compact, and actionable 3D world representation by means of 3D primitives. Unlike existing primitive decomposition methods that rely on 3D input data, our approach operates directly on images. We show that the resulting textured primitives faithfully reconstruct the input images and accurately model the visible 3D points.

  PhotoScene is a framework that takes input image(s) of a scene and builds a photorealistic digital twin with high-quality materials and similar lighting. We model scene materials using procedural material graphs; such graphs represent photorealistic and resolution-independent materials. We evaluate our technique on objects and layout reconstructions from ScanNet, SUN RGB-D and stock photographs, and demonstrate that our method reconstructs high-quality, fully relightable 3D scenes.
