Light Stage Super-Resolution: Continuous High-Frequency Relighting by Sun, Tiancheng, Xu, Zexiang, Zhang, Xiuming, Fanello, Sean, Rhemann, Christoph, Debevec, Paul, Tsai, Yun-Ta, Barron, Jonathan, Ramamoorthi, Ravi

“…To ameliorate these artifacts and produce better results under arbitrary high-frequency lighting, this paper proposes a learning-based solution for the "super-resolution" of scans of human faces taken from a light stage. Given an arbitrary "query" light direction, our method aggregates the captured images corresponding to neighboring lights in the stage, and uses a neural network to synthesize a rendering of the face that appears to be illuminated by a "virtual" light source at the query location. …”
