Recent advances in Intrinsic Image Decomposition (IID) have increasingly relied on generative models. However, progress remains limited by three key challenges: (a) insufficient physical consistency,...

The paper introduces a benchmark called Shedding Light to evaluate how well generative image models understand and reproduce lighting. The benchmark tests models by asking them to inpaint a simple object, called a light probe, into real photographs and then compares the generated probe to the ground truth to assess lighting direction, colour, and radiance. The authors provide a scalable protocol and open-source code and data for systematic assessment of photometric accuracy in future models.

arXiv:2606. 31637v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Intrinsic decomposition which expresses image colors as the product of diffuse albedo and shading, possibly augmented with view-dependent residuals has a long history in image editing as it enables the modification of object colors and textures without altering lighting.
