Bi-scale radiance transfer

Radiance transfer represents how generic source lighting is shadowed and scattered by an object to produce view-dependent appearance. We generalize by rendering transfer at two scales. A macro-scale is coarsely sampled over an object's surface, ...
Shadow silhouette maps

The most popular techniques for interactive rendering of hard shadows are shadow maps and shadow volumes. Shadow maps work well in regions that are completely in light or in shadow but result in objectionable artifacts near shadow boundaries. In ...
Radiance caching for participating media

In this article we present a novel radiance caching method for efficiently rendering participating media using Monte Carlo ray tracing. Our method handles all types of light scattering including anisotropic scattering, and it works in both homogeneous ...
