This paper proposes a new methodology for measuring the error of unbiased physically based rendering algorithms. The current state of the art includes mean squared error (MSE) based metrics and visual comparisons of equal-time renderings of competing algor ...
A method for screen-space voxel ray-casting of scenes on a whole screen. The method comprises providing a graphics card; rendering seamlessly any one of the following list of primitives containing at least polygons, voxels; using a GPU pipeline of the grap ...
Modern rendering systems are confronted with a dauntingly large and growing set of requirements: in their pursuit of realism, physically based techniques must increasingly account for intricate properties of light, such as its spectral composition or polar ...
One of the key ingredients of any physically based rendering system is a detailed specification characterizing the interaction of light and matter of all materials present in a scene, typically via the Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) ...
Differentiable rendering has recently opened the door to a number of challenging inverse problems involving photorealistic images, such as computational material design and scattering-aware reconstruction of geometry and materials from photographs. Differe ...
Path tracing is now the standard method used to generate realistic imagery in many domains, e.g., film, special effects, architecture etc. Path guiding has recently emerged as a powerful strategy to counter the notoriously long computation times required t ...
Scattering from specular surfaces produces complex optical effects that are frequently encountered in realistic scenes: intricate caustics due to focused reflection, multiple refraction, and high-frequency glints from specular microstructure. Yet, despite ...

By incorporating computational methods into the image acquisition pipeline, computational photography has opened up new avenues in the representation and visualization of real world objects in the digital world. For example, we can sample a scene under a f ...
BRDF (for bidirectional reflectance distribution function) are functions used in computer graphics and optics to describe how an opaque surface reflect the incoming light. The goal of this project is to study technics to separate different components of th ...
