Abstract
A surface normal model is trained to predict normal maps from single images using pair-wise angular losses. A training dataset comprising a training image and a ground truth normal map for the training image is received. To train the surface normal model using the training dataset, a predicted normal map is generated for the training image using the surface normal model. A loss is determined as a function of angular values between pairs of normal vectors for the predicted normal map and corresponding angular values between pairs of normal vectors for the ground truth normal map. The surface normal model is updated based on the loss.
