As one-shot approaches, t hese offer fast inference, but often fall short in quality. The second app roach does not train models that generalize across tasks, but rather over- fit a single instance of a problem, e.g., a flash image of a material. The se methods offer high quality, but take long to train. We suggest to combi ne both techniques end-to-end using meta-learning: We over-fit onto a sing le problem instance in an inner loop, while also learning how to do so eff iciently in an outer-loop across many exemplars. To this end, we derive th e required formalism that allows applying meta-learning to a wide range of visual appearance reproduction problems: textures, Bi-directional Reflect ance Distribution Functions (BRDFs), spatially-varying\nBRDFs (svBRDFs), i llumination or the entire light transport of a scene. The effects of meta- learning parameters on several different aspects of visual appearance are analyzed in our framework, and specific guidance for different tasks is pr ovided. Metapperance enables visual quality that is similar to over-fit ap proaches in only a fraction of their runtime while keeping the adaptivity of general models.\n\nRegistration Category: FULL ACCESS, EXPERIENCE PLUS ACCESS, EXPERIENCE ACCESS, TRADE EXHIBITOR\n\nLanguage: ENGLISH\n\nFormat: IN-PERSON URL:https://sa2022.siggraph.org/en/full-program/?id=papers_247&sess=sess15 3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
