From visual appearance to material categories

2026-03-28

Abstract excerpt

<p>Materials from distinct categories share common image features but also exhibit unique characteristics. How do humans recognize materials despite their enormous appearance variations? Using generative neural networks, we create both prototypical and ambiguous materials that morph between categories. To capture the richness of material representation, we characterize how people judge materials using cross-materi...
