Abstract
Methods and systems disclosed herein relate generally to surface-rendering neural networks to represent and render a variety of material appearances (e.g., textured surfaces) at different scales. The system includes receiving image metadata for a texel that includes position, incoming and outgoing radiance direction, and a kernel size. The system applies a offset-prediction neural network to the query to identify an offset coordinate for the texel. The system inputs the offset coordinate to a data structure to determine a feature vector for the texel of the textured surface. The reflectance feature vector is then processed using a decoder neural network to estimate a light-reflectance value of the texel, at which the light-reflectance value is used to render the texel of the textured surface.
