Photometric-based 3D object modeling

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system and a method for performing operations comprising: accessing a source image depicting a target structure; accessing one or more target images depicting at least a portion of the target structure; computing correspondence between a first set of pixels in the source image of a first portion of the target structure and a second set of pixels in the one or more target images of the first portion of the target structure, the correspondence being computed as a function of camera parameters that vary between the source image and the one or more target images; and generating a three-dimensional (3D) model of the target structure based on the correspondence between the first set of pixels in the source image and the second set of pixels in the one or more target images based on a joint optimization of target structure and camera parameters.
