A Generalized Ray Formulation For Wave-Optics Rendering
Shlomi Steinberg, Ravi Ramamoorthi, Benedikt Bitterli +3
Under ray-optical light transport, the classical ray serves as a linear and local "point query" of light's behaviour. Linearity and locality are crucial to the formulation of sophi…
A physical model and a Monte Carlo estimate for the specific intensity spatial derivative, angular derivative and geometric sensitivity
Paule Lapeyre, Zili He, Stéphane Blanco +11
Starting from the radiative transfer equation and its usual boundary conditions, the objective of this work is to design Monte Carlo algorithms estimating the specific intensity sp…
A Position-Free Path Integral for Homogeneous Slabs and Multiple Scattering on Smith Microfacets
Benedikt Bitterli, Eugene d'Eon
We consider the problem of multiple scattering on Smith microfacets. This problem is equivalent to computing volumetric light transport in a homogeneous slab. Although the symmetry…
An analytic BRDF for materials with spherical Lambertian scatterers
Eugene d'Eon
We present a new analytic BRDF for porous materials comprised of spherical Lambertian scatterers. The BRDF has a single parameter: the albedo of the Lambertian particles. The resul…
An unbiased ray-marching transmittance estimator
Markus Kettunen, Eugene d'Eon, Jacopo Pantaleoni +1
We present an in-depth analysis of the sources of variance in state-of-the-art unbiased volumetric transmittance estimators, and propose several new methods for improving their eff…
Green's functions for non-classical transport with general anisotropic scattering
Eugene d'Eon
In non-classical linear transport the chord length distribution between collisions is non-exponential and attenuation does not respect Beer's law. Generalized radiative transfer (G…
