  - Achieving photorealistic 3D view synthesis and relighting of human portraits is
    pivotal for advancing AR/VR applications. Existing methodologies in portrait relighting
    demonstrate substantial limitations in terms of generalization and 3D consistency,
    coupled with inaccuracies in physically realistic lighting and identity preservation.
    Furthermore, personalization from a single view is difficult to achieve and often
    requires multiview images during the testing phase or involves slow optimization
    processes. This paper introduces Lite2Relight , a novel technique that can predict
    3D consistent head poses of portraits while performing physically plausible light
    editing at interactive speed. Our method uniquely extends the generative capabilities
    and efficient volumetric representation of EG3D, leveraging a lightstage dataset
    to implicitly disentangle face reflectance and perform relighting under target
    HDRI environment maps. By utilizing a pre-trained geometry-aware encoder and a
    feature alignment module, we map input images into a relightable 3D space, enhancing
    them with a strong face geometry and reflectance prior. Through extensive quantitative
    and qualitative evaluations, we show that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art
    methods in terms of efficacy, photorealism, and practical application. This includes
    producing 3D-consistent results of the full head, including hair, eyes, and expressions.
    Lite2Relight paves the way for large-scale adoption of photorealistic portrait
    editing in various domains, offering a robust, interactive solution to a previously
    constrained problem.@eng
