On the Statistical Consistency of DOP Estimators
A statistical estimator attempts to guess an unknown probability distribution by analyzing a sample from this distribution. One desirable property of an estimator is that its gues...

Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

Lighting Details Preserving Photon Density Estimation
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...

Illumination Invariant And Rotational Insensitive Textural Representation
We propose an illumination invariant and rotation insensitive texture representation based on a Markovian textural model. A texture is aligned with its dominant orientation and te...
