  text: 'The understanding of material appearance perception is a complex problem
    due to interactions between material reflectance, surface geometry, and illumination.
    Recently, Serrano et al. collected the largest dataset to date with subjective
    ratings of material appearance attributes, including glossiness, metallicness,
    sharpness and contrast of reflections. In this work, we make use of their dataset
    to investigate for the first time the impact of the interactions between illumination,
    geometry, and eight different material categories in perceived appearance attributes.
    After an initial analysis, we select for further analysis the four material categories
    that cover the largest range for all perceptual attributes: fabric, plastic, ceramic,
    and metal. Using a cumulative link mixed model (CLMM) for robust regression, we
    discover interactions between these material categories and four representative
    illuminations and object geometries. We believe that our findings contribute to
    expanding the knowledge on material appearance perception and can be useful for
    many applications, such as scene design, where any particular material in a given
    shape can be aligned with dominant classes of illumination, so that a desired
    strength of appearance attributes can be achieved.'
