WildRelight is the first in-the-wild dataset designed to evaluate single-image relighting models, featuring high-resolution outdoor scenes captured under strictly aligned, temporally varying natural illuminations paired with high-dynamic-range environment maps. The benchmark demonstrates that state-of-the-art models trained on synthetic data suffer severe domain shifts when applied to real-world imagery. Leveraging the dataset’s temporal structure, the authors introduce a physics-guided inference framework combining Diffusion Posterior Sampling with Temporal Sampling-Aware Test-Time Adaptation, enabling synthetic models to self-supervise and align with real-world statistics on-the-fly.

JointLight introduces an asynchronous joint-modeling approach for human-centric video relighting, enabling fine-grained illumination control by jointly denoising RGB and irradiance frames during two-stage training. The method employs a domain matching strategy to bridge gaps between synthetic irradiance cues and real irradiance maps, and uses an asynchronous hijacked generation pipeline at inference. A newly created multi-illumination synthetic video dataset with paired irradiance maps supports training, and the model demonstrates strong generalization to real-world scenarios, outperforming prior methods in lighting fidelity and generative quality.
