Abstract
Real world object reconstruction and representation include performing operations that include sampling locations along a camera ray from a virtual camera to a target object to obtain a sample set of the locations along the camera ray. For each location of the at least a subset of the sample set, the operations include determining a position of the location with respect to the target object, executing, based on the position, a reflectance multilayer perceptron (MLP) model, to determine an albedo and material shininess for the location, and computing a radiance for the location and based on a viewing direction of the camera ray using the albedo and the material shininess. The operations further includes rendering a color value for the camera ray by compositing the radiance across the first sample set.
