Intrinsic decomposition from a single image is a highly challenging task, due to its inherent ambiguity and the scarcity of training data.

We take an alternative approach: learning a generative model over multi-view depth maps or their corresponding silhouettes, and using a deterministic rendering function to produce 3D shapes from these images.

The idea of computer vision as the Bayesian inverse problem to computer graphics has a long history and an appealing elegance, but it has proved difficult to directly implement.
