Methods, systems, and apparatus for obtaining first image features derived from an image of an object, providing the first image features to a three-dimensional estimator neural network, and obtaining, from the three-dimensional estimator neural network, data specifying an estimated three-dimensional shape and texture based on the first image features. The estimated three-dimensional shape and texture are provided to a three-dimensional rendering engine, and a plurality of three-dimensional views of the object are generated by the three-dimensional rendering engine based on the estimated three-dimensional shape and texture. The plurality of three-dimensional views are provided to the object recognition engine, and second image features derived from the plurality of three-dimensional views are obtained from the object recognition engine. A loss is computed based at least on the first and second image features, and the three-dimensional estimator neural network is trained based at least on the computed loss.
