Claim 7:
8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying program code for generating an appearance-responsive material map, the program code comprising instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform:
accessing source material data, the source material data including material data that describes one or more surface appearance values associated with a three-dimensional (“3D”) graphical object;
identifying, via a trained material map generation neural network, a combination of features from the source material data, wherein the trained material map generation neural network is trained to select the combination of features based on a detail level;
generating an appearance-responsive material map that includes a combination of material data from the source material data, the combination of material data associated with the identified combination of features; and
providing the appearance-responsive material map to a rendering engine that is configured to render the 3D graphical object having a visual appearance that is based on the appearance-responsive material map and a viewpoint distance.
