GLOW: Global Illumination-Aware Inverse Rendering of Indoor Scenes Captured with Dynamic Co-Located Light & Camera

GLOW is a Global Illumination‑aware inverse rendering framework for indoor scenes captured with dynamic co‑located light and camera setups. It combines a neural implicit surface representation with a neural radiance cache to jointly optimize geometry and reflectance, while introducing a dynamic radiance cache and a surface‑angle‑weighted radiometric loss to handle near‑field motion, strong inter‑reflections, and specular highlights. Experiments demonstrate that GLOW significantly outperforms prior methods in estimating material reflectance under both natural and co‑located illumination.

Generative Relightable Avatars

We present Generative Relightable Avatars (GRA), a person-specific method for photorealistic free-view rendering and environment-map relighting of full-body humans. We postulate that modeling fine-grained appearance details is inherently a one-to-many problem that can benefit from a generative formulation.
