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.

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.

Intrinsic image decomposition aims to recover material and illumination factors from RGB observations, but real-world images entangle reflectance with illumination, visibility, shadows, and non-diffuse appearance. Recent single-image methods address this entanglement with a residual image formation model, decomposing RGB into albedo, diffuse shading, and a non-diffuse residual. However, applying such decomposition independently to consecutive frames lacks scene-level context, leading to inconsistent factor assignments, albedo drift, and leakage across views. Meanwhile, multi-view inverse-rendering methods recover properties, such as material, lighting, and geometry, but they rely on synthetic data due to the highly uncertain estimation, and do not generalize to supervision by real images. We present MVID, Multi-View Intrinsic image Decomposition, a feed-forward framework built on the residual image formation model. MVID builds a scene-level multi-view representation and decodes a view-consistent albedo together with coherent per-view shading and residual factors through a factor query adapter, while using the same image formation model for self-supervised RGB reconstruction on unlabeled real-world sequences. Experiments on indoor, real-world, and outdoor benchmarks show that MVID improves both per-frame decomposition quality and cross-view consistency over single-view intrinsic, generative intrinsic, and multi-view inverse-rendering baselines. The resulting view-stable factors support practical image-space applications, including multi-view consistent illumination editing and specularity removal.
