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...

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...

Interactive, Multiresolution Image-Space Rendering for Dynamic Area Lighting
Area lights add tremendous realism, but rendering them interactively proves challenging. Integrating visibility is costly, even with current shadowing techniques, and existing met...

Photon-driven Irradiance Cache
We describe a global illumination method combining two well known techniques: photon mapping and irradiance caching. The photon mapping method has the advantage of being view inde...

The Soft Shadow Occlusion Camera
A fundamental challenge for existing shadow map based algorithms is dealing with partially illuminated surfaces. A conventional shadow map built with a pinhole camera only determi...
