GPU-based Out-of-Core HLBVH Construction
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Recently the GPU has been used extensively in building indexing structures for moderately complex scenes that fit inside the GPU core. However, only few methods have been developed for constructing indexing structures for ... -
Gradient-Domain Bidirectional Path Tracing
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Gradient-domain path tracing has recently been introduced as an efficient realistic image synthesis algorithm. This paper introduces a bidirectional gradient-domain sampler that outperforms traditional bidirectional path ... -
High Performance Non-linear Motion Blur
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Motion blur is becoming more common in interactive applications such as games and previsualization tools. Here, a common strategy is to approximate motion blur with an image-space post-process, and many recent approaches ... -
Interactive Global Illumination Effects Using Deterministically Directed Layered Depth Maps
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)A layered depth map is an extension of the well-known depth map used in rasterization. Multiple layered depth maps can be used as a coarse scene representation. We develop two global illumination methods which use said ... -
MatCap Decomposition for Dynamic Appearance Manipulation
(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
(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
(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
(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
(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 ...
