Adaptive LightSlice for Virtual Ray Lights
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)We speed up the rendering of participating media with Virtual Ray Lights (VRLs) by clustering them in a preprocessing step. A subset of representative VRLs is then sampled from the clustering, which is used for the final ... -
Adaptive Quantization Visibility Caching
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Ray tracing has become a viable alternative to rasterization for interactive applications and also forms the basis of most global illumination methods. However, even today's fastest ray-tracers offer only a tight budget ... -
Ambient Occlusion Baking via a Feed-Forward Neural Network
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)We present a feed-forward neural network approach for ambient occlusion baking in real-time rendering. The idea is based on implementing a multi-layer perceptron that allows a general encoding via regression and an efficient ... -
Analytic Rasterization of Curves with Polynomial Filters
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We present a method of analytically rasterizing shapes that have curved boundaries and linear color gradients using piecewise polynomial prefilters. By transforming the convolution of filters with the image from an integral ... -
BRDF Representation and Acquisition
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Photorealistic rendering of real world environments is important in a range of different areas; including Visual Special effects, Interior/Exterior Modelling, Architectural Modelling, Cultural Heritage, Computer Games and ... -
Capturing Relightable Human Performances under General Uncontrolled Illumination
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We present a novel approach to create relightable free-viewpoint human performances from multi-view video recorded under general uncontrolled and uncalibated illumination.We first capture a multi-view sequence of an actor ... -
Compressed Multiresolution Hierarchies for High-Quality Precomputed Shadows
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)The quality of shadow mapping is traditionally limited by texture resolution. We present a novel lossless compression scheme for high-resolution shadow maps based on precomputed multiresolution hierarchies. Traditional ... -
Compressive Image Reconstruction in Reduced Union of Subspaces
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We present a new compressed sensing framework for reconstruction of incomplete and possibly noisy images and their higher dimensional variants, e.g. animations and light-fields. The algorithm relies on a learning-based ... -
Detail Highlighting using a Shadow Edge Histogram
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)In this paper we propose a simple and effective technique for setting up a configuration of directional light sources to accentuate the prominent geometric features of complex objects by increasing the local shadow contrast ... -
Example-based Interpolation and Synthesis of Bidirectional Texture Functions
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Bidirectional Texture Functions (BTF) have proven to be a well-suited representation for the reproduction of measured real-world surface appearance and provide a high degree of realism. We present an approach for designing ... -
Exploiting the Potential of Image Based Crowd Rendering
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Per-joint impostors have been used to achieve high performance when rendering thousands of agents, while still allowing us to blend animation. This provides interactively animated crowds and reduces the memory footprint ... -
High-Quality Shadows for Streaming Terrain Rendering
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Rendering of large, detailed 3D terrains on commodity hardware has become possible through the use of raycasting, data caching and prefetching. Adding dynamic shadows as they appear during a day-night cycle remais a challenge ... -
IlluminationCut
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We present a novel algorithm, IlluminationCut, for rendering images using the many-lights framework. It handles any light source that can be approximated with virtual point lights (VPLs) as well as highly glossy materials. ... -
Interactive Diffraction from Biological Nanostructures
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)We describe a technique for interactive rendering of diffraction effects produced by biological nanostructures such as snake skin surface gratings. Our approach uses imagery from atomic force microscopy that accurately ... -
Interactive HDR Environment Map Capturing on Mobile Devices
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Real world illumination, captured by digitizing devices, is beneficial to solve many problems in computer graphics. Therefore, practical methods for capturing this illumination are of high interest. In this paper, we present ... -
Near-Instant Capture of High-Resolution Facial Geometry and Reflectance
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)We present a near-instant method for acquiring facial geometry and reflectance using a set of commodity DSLR cameras and flashes. Our setup consists of twenty-four cameras and six flashes which are fired in rapid succession ... -
Partitioned Shadow Volumes
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)Real-time shadows remain a challenging problem in computer graphics. In this context, shadow algorithms generally rely either on shadow mapping or shadow volumes. This paper rediscovers an old class of algorithms that build ... -
Real-Time Rendering of Heterogeneous Translucent Materials with Dynamic Programming
