Inverse rendering aims to recover both 3D geometry and physically meaningful material properties from images, enabling applications such as relighting and novel view synthesis. Optimization-based methods achieve high fidelity but require costly per-scene fitting, while image-spac…
Inverse rendering requires separating illumination from surface materials, which is highly ambiguous due to their tight coupling in observed images. While Gaussian Splatting is efficient for novel view synthesis, existing relightable methods approximate scene lighting using discr…
