  • Publication number: 20240096018
    Abstract: Systems and methods for rendering a translucent object are provided. In one aspect, the system includes a processor coupled to a storage medium that stores instructions, which, upon execution by the processor, cause the processor to receive at least one mesh representing at least one translucent object. For each pixel to be rendered, the processor performs a rasterization-based differentiable rendering of the pixel to be rendered using the at least one mesh and determines a plurality of values for the pixel to be rendered based on the rasterization-based differentiable rendering. The rasterization-based differentiable rendering can include performing a probabilistic rasterization process along with aggregation techniques to compute the plurality of values for the pixel to be rendered. The plurality of values includes a set of color channel values and an opacity channel value. Once values are determined for all pixels, an image can be rendered.

  • Publication number: 20230325975
    Abstract: A method for training an image processor having a neural network model is described. A first training set of images having a first image resolution is generated. A second training set of images having a second image resolution is generated. The second image resolution is larger than the first image resolution. The neural network model of the image processor is trained using the first training set of images during a first training session. The neural network model of the image processor is trained using the second training set of images during a second training session after the first training session.
