Abstract
Apparatus and method for enhancing graphics rendering photorealism. For example, one embodiment of a graphics processor comprises: a graphics processing pipeline comprising a plurality of graphics processing stages to render a graphics image; a local storage to store intermediate rendering data to generate the graphics image; and machine-learning hardware logic to perform a refinement operation on the graphics image using at least a portion of the intermediate rendering data to generate a translated image.
Claims24
A graphics processor comprising:
- a graphics processing pipeline comprising a plurality of graphics processing stages to render a graphics image;
- a local storage to store intermediate rendering data to generate the graphics image;
- and
- machine-learning hardware logic to perform a refinement operation on the graphics image using at least a portion of the intermediate rendering data to generate a translated image.
A method comprising:
- rendering a graphics image on a graphics processing pipeline comprising a plurality of graphics processing stages;
- storing intermediate rendering data in a local storage to generate the graphics image;
- and
- performing machine-learning operations including a refinement operation on the graphics image using at least a portion of the intermediate rendering data to generate a translated image.
A machine-readable medium having program code stored thereon which, when executed by a machine, causes the machine to perform the operations of:
- rendering a graphics image on a graphics processing pipeline comprising a plurality of graphics processing stages;
- storing intermediate rendering data in a local storage to generate the graphics image;
- and
- performing machine-learning operations including a refinement operation on the graphics image using at least a portion of the intermediate rendering data to generate a translated image.
