Albedo Estimation via Latent Bridge Matching

Intrinsic image decomposition aims to estimate physically based rendering (PBR) parameters such as albedo, roughness, and metallicity from images. While recent methods achieve strong single-view predictions, applying them independently to multiple views of the same scene often yields inconsistent estimates, limiting their use in downstream applications such as editable neural scenes and 3D reconstruction. Video-based models can improve cross-frame consistency but require dense, ordered sequences and substantial compute, limiting their applicability to sparse, unordered image collections. We propose Geo-ID, a novel test-time framework that repurposes pretrained single-view intrinsic predictors to produce cross-view consistent decompositions by coupling independent per-view predictions through sparse geometric correspondences that form uncertainty-aware consensus targets. Geo-ID is model-agnostic, requires no retraining or inverse rendering, and applies directly to off-the-shelf intrinsic predictors. Experiments on synthetic benchmarks and real-world scenes demonstrate substantial improvements in cross-view intrinsic consistency as the number of views increases, while maintaining comparable single-view decomposition performance. We further show that the resulting consistent intrinsics enable coherent appearance editing and relighting in downstream neural scene representations.

Hyperspectral intrinsic decomposition (HID) aims to disentangle material-related spectral properties and photometric effects in hyperspectral images (HSIs), which is essential for understanding real-world imaging processes and benefits a variety of downstream applications. Most existing HID studies have been developed under Lambertian or near-Lambertian assumptions. The few prior non-Lambertian efforts rely on simplified specular assumptions insufficient to handle diverse real-world specularity, and typically require auxiliary inputs or recover only a subset of the coupled reflectance and photometric components, hindering complete and blind decomposition. In this paper, we revisit the dichromatic reflection model (DRM) and develop a unified inversion paradigm that reformulates the recovery of four coupled reflectance and photometric components as the estimation of two spectral--spatial target variables. Building on this reformulation, we propose a dual-scale decomposition scheme to handle non-Lambertian effects with distinct spatial characteristics. At the global scale, photometrically invariant descriptors serve as edge priors for high-fidelity intrinsic boundary preservation; at the local scale, specularity-guided attention directs refinement with emphasis on specularity-dominated regions, including those affected by clipping distortion. To facilitate future research, we establish CITE, the first public real-world HID dataset for non-Lambertian objects, and develop a Physically-faithful Intrinsic Set Generator (PISG) for controllable data synthesis. Extensive ablation studies and experiments on the CITE and additional HSIs demonstrate the effectiveness of our method and its robustness across diverse scenes.

Reconstructing high-fidelity, relightable 3D avatars from a single in-the-wild image is a challenging ill-posed problem, primarily hindered by the scarcity of high-quality PBR data and the complexity of disentangling illumination from intrinsic materials. In this paper, we present a data-efficient framework that leverages the robust priors of a unified pre-trained diffusion backbone to sequentially address texture completion, delighting, and material decomposition. Unlike existing methods that rely on fragmented pipelines or extensive proprietary datasets, we utilize cascaded Low-Rank Adaptations (LoRAs) to adapt the strong generative prior of the diffusion model for each sub-task in UV space. Specifically, we first employ an Inpainting LoRA to complete missing UV textures caused by occlusion, leveraging the model's semantic understanding to generate semantically and photometrically coherent details. Subsequently, a Light-Homogenization LoRA and a novel Cross-Intrinsic Attention mechanism are introduced to remove baked-in lighting and collaboratively synthesize pixel-aligned PBR maps (Albedo, Normal, Roughness, Specular, and Displacement). To ensure physical plausibility, we impose a UV-space differentiable BRDF shading loss during the decomposition stage, forcing the generative process to adhere to the rendering equation without the artifacts typical of rasterization-based supervision. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method, trained on fewer than 100 real 3D scans, generates comprehensive, 4K-resolution PBR assets with superior realism and generalization compared to state-of-the-art methods, and all training code and model weights will be released upon acceptance.
