Abstract

The chapter introduces ZeST, a novel approach for zero-shot material transfer from a single image to another, addressing the challenges of 2D-to-2D material editing. Unlike previous methods that require explicit 3D geometry and illumination estimation, ZeST operates in the latent space of diffusion models, making it practical and widely applicable. The method combines geometry-guided generation and latent illumination guidance to transfer material appearances accurately. Extensive experiments and qualitative evaluations demonstrate ZeST's superior performance in photo-realism and material accuracy compared to various baselines. The chapter also highlights ZeST's potential applications, such as applying pre-designed materials to real-world images and performing lighting-aware material transfer. The method's simplicity and effectiveness make it a promising tool for graphic designers and AI researchers working on image generation and editing tasks.
