    • MatCap Decomposition for Dynamic Appearance Manipulation 

      Zubiaga, Carlos Jorge; Muñoz, Adolfo; Belcour, Laurent; Bosch, Carles; Barla, Pascal (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      In sculpting software, MatCaps (a shorthand for "Material Capture") are often used by artists as a simple and efficient way to design appearance. Similar to LitSpheres, they convey material appearance into a single image ...
    • MBVH Child Node Sorting for Fast Occlusion Test 

      Ogaki, Shinji; Derouet-Jourdan, Alexandre (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Optimal BVH layout differs among ray types. To accelerate shadow rays, the use of a specialized traversal order, optionally with an additional data structure has been proposed. In this paper we show how sorting child nodes ...
    • Practical Rendering of Thin Layered Materials with Extended Microfacet Normal Distributions 

      Guo, Jie; Qian, Jinghui; Pan, Jingui (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We propose a practical reflectance model for rendering thin transparent layers with different sides varying in roughness and levels of gloss. To capture the effect of subsurface reflection, previous methods rely on importance ...
    • Practical Shading of Height Fields and Meshes using Spherical Harmonic Exponentiation 

      Giraud, Aude; Nowrouzezahrai, Derek (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Interactively computing smooth shading effects from environmental lighting, such as soft shadows and glossy reflections, is a challenge in scenes with dynamic objects. We present a method to efficiently approximate these ...
    • Stereo from Shading 

      Chapiro, Alexandre; O'Sullivan, Carol; Jarosz, Wojciech; Gross, Markus; Smolic, Aljoscha (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We present a new method for creating and enhancing the stereoscopic 3D (S3D) sensation without using the parallax disparity between an image pair. S3D relies on a combination of cues to generate a feeling of depth, but ...
