Abstract
An image rendering method for a virtual scene includes, for a plurality of IDs, generating a respective mask identifying elements of the scene that are associated with a respective ID; for the resulting plurality of masks, dividing a respective mask into a plurality of tiles; and discarding tiles that do not identify any image elements; for the resulting plurality of remaining tiles, selecting a respective trained machine learning model from among a plurality of machine learning models, the respective machine learning model having been trained to generate data contributing to a render of at least a part of an image, based upon elements of the scene associated with the same respective ID as the elements identified in the mask from which the respective tile was divided; and using the respective trained machine learning model to generate data contributing to a render of at least a part of the image based upon input data at least for the identified elements in the respective tile.
