Caustics are important visual phenomena, as well as challenging global illumination effects in computer graphics. Physically caustics can be interpreted from one of two perspectiv...
Standard density estimation approaches suffer from visible bias due to low-pass filtering of the lighting function. Therefore, most photon density estimation methods have been us...
We present an unbiased method for generating caustic lighting using importance sampled Path Tracing with Caustic Forecasting. Our technique is part of a straightforward rendering ...
Global illumination provides a visual richness not achievable with the direct illumination models used by most interactive applications. To generate global effects, numerous appro...
Fast global illumination computation is a challenge in several fields such as lighting simulation and computergenerated visual effects for movies. To this end, the irradiance cac...
