Appendix

3.4. Objectives

We supervise both intrinsic image attributes and relit images using their corresponding ground truths, obtained from the lightstage. We employ a combination of reconstruction, perceptual [24], adversarial [22], and specular [34] losses.

Final Loss. The SwitchLight is trained in an end-to-end manner using the weighted sum of the above losses:

We empirically determined the weighting coefficients.
