Fogshop: Real-Time Design and Rendering of Inhomogeneous, Single-Scattering Media
We describe a new, analytic approximation to the airlight integral from scattering media whose density is modeled as a sum of Gaussians. The approximation supports real-time rende...

GPU algorithms for radiosity and subsurface scattering
We capitalize on recent advances in modern programmable graphics hardware, originally designed to support advanced local illumination models for shading, to instead perform two di...

Subtractive Shadows: A Flexible Framework for Shadow Level of Detail
Abstract. We explore the implications of reversing the process of shadow computation for real-time applications that model complex reflectance and lighting (such as that specified ...

Rendering Soft Shadows using Multilayered Shadow Fins
Generating soft shadows in real time is difficult. Exact methods (such as ray tracing, and multiple light source simulation) are too slow, while approximate methods often overesti...

Illuminating micro geometry based on precomputed visibility
Many researchers have been arguing that geometry, bump maps, and BRDFs present a hierarchy of detail that should be exploited for efficient rendering purposes. In practice howeve...
