Abstract

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing. The apparatus can obtain at least one input image including a plurality of pixels. Additionally, the apparatus can determine shading information for each of the plurality of pixels in the at least one input image. The apparatus can also determine a shading map based on the determined shading information for each of the plurality of pixels in the at least one input image. In some aspects, the apparatus can generate at least one output image based on the at least one input image and the determined shading map. The apparatus can also enhance a quality of the at least one output image. In some aspects, the quality of the at least one output image can be enhanced based on machine learning. Further, the apparatus can generate the at least one input image including the plurality of pixels.
