Real-Time Indirect Illumination and Soft Shadows in Dynamic Scenes Using Spherical Lights
We present a method for rendering approximate soft shadows and diffuse indirect illumination in dynamic scenes. The proposed method approximates the original scene geometry with a...

Approximate ambient occlusion for trees
Natural scenes contain large amounts of geometry, such as hundreds of thousands or even millions of tree leaves and grass blades. Subtle lighting effects present in such environme...

Efficient clustering and visibility calculation for global illumination
Using a radiosity method to estimate light inter-reflections within large scenes still remains a difficult task. The two main reasons are: (i) the computations entailed by the rad...
