WildCap: Facial Albedo Capture in the Wild via Hybrid Inverse Rendering

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2512.11237v2 Announce Type: replace Existing methods achieve high-quality facial albedo capture under controllable lighting, which increases capture cost and limits usability. We propose WildCap, a novel method for high-quality facial albedo capture from a smartvideo recorded in the wild. To disentangle high-quality albedo from complex lighting effects in in-the-wild captures, we propose a novel hybrid inverse rendering framework.
