Differentiable Physically Based Rendering: Algorithms, Systems and Applications

Physically based rendering methods can create photorealistic images by simulating the propagation and interaction of light in a virtual scene. Given a scene description including the shape of objects, participating media, material properties, etc., the sim ...

Direct time-of-flight SPAD image sensors for light detection and ranging

Preethi Padmanabhan

Depth sensing is an increasingly important feature in many applications of consumer, automotive, augmented/virtual reality (AR-VR), space and bio-medical imaging. Long range, high depth resolution, high spatial resolution, and high frame rates are often co ...

Reparameterizing Discontinuous Integrands for Differentiable Rendering

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Guillaume Rémi Bruno Loubet

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 ...

Learning to Reconstruct Texture-less Deformable Surfaces from a Single View

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Jan Bednarík

Recent years have seen the development of mature solutions for reconstructing deformable surfaces from a single image, provided that they are relatively well-textured. By contrast, recovering the 3D shape of texture-less surfaces remains an open problem, a ...

Sampling the Multiple Facets of Light

Gilles Baechler

The theme of this thesis revolves around three important manifestations of light, namely its corpuscular, wave and electromagnetic nature. Our goal is to exploit these principles to analyze, design and build imaging modalities by developing new signal proc ...

An embedded system for quasi real-time lighting computation based on sky monitoring

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

Lighting simulation plays a significant role in the architectural design and evaluation of performance parameters of buildings. The general method of assuming a virtual sky in lighting simulation may lead to mismatch with the real situation, which conventi ...

Dynamic 3D Avatar Creation from Hand-held Video Input

Mark Pauly, Sofien Bouaziz, Alexandru Eugen Ichim

We present a complete pipeline for creating fully rigged, personalized 3D facial avatars from hand-held video. Our system faithfully recovers facial expression dynamics of the user by adapting a blendshape template to an image sequence of recorded expressi ...

Photobleaching Kinetics and Time-Integrated Emission of Fluorescent Probes in Cellular Membranes

Daniel Sage

Since the pioneering work of Hirschfeld, it is known that time-integrated emission (TiEm) of a fluorophore is independent of fluorescence quantum yield and illumination intensity. Practical implementation of this important result for determining exact prob ...
