Automatic PBR Texture Reconstruction for Window Images

Abstract Details

2023, Master of Computer Science, Miami University, Computer Science.
In various fields, computer-generated architecture plays a pivotal role, especially in tasks like historical scene reconstruction and real estate marketing. However, reverse-engineering architectural details from images poses significant challenges due to diverse constraints. Our research focuses on one central architectural element—windows—as a stepping stone towards 3D modeling of complex scenes. We employ Physically Based Rendering (PBR) texture mapping to accurately represent material information, including transparency and reflectance, in window surfaces. Estimating PBR textures, including depth and albedo maps, is crucial for capturing the 3D appearance of windows. Given limited or unavailable ground truth data, we adopt unsupervised learning methods. Our approach utilizes a Resnet-50 backbone for window image viewpoint estimation and implements a neural network for unsupervised PBR texture estimation. This work aims to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of 3D modeling in architectural contexts, addressing the inherent challenges of reverse-engineering architectural features from images.
