Practical Real-Time Lens-Flare Rendering
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
We present a practical real-time approach for rendering lens-flare effects. While previous work employed costly ray tracing or complex polynomial expressions, we present a coarser, but also significantly faster solution. ...
Analytic Tangent Irradiance Environment Maps for Anisotropic Surfaces
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)
Environment-mapped rendering of Lambertian isotropic surfaces is common, and a popular technique is to use a quadratic spherical harmonic expansion. This compact irradiance map representation is widely adopted in interactive ...
Extracting Microfacet-based BRDF Parameters from Arbitrary Materials with Power Iterations
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
We introduce a novel fitting procedure that takes as input an arbitrary material, possibly anisotropic, and automatically converts it to a microfacet BRDF. Our algorithm is based on the property that the distribution of ...
Motion Aware Exposure Bracketing for HDR Video
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Mobile phones and tablets are rapidly gaining significance as omnipresent image and video capture devices. In this context we present an algorithm that allows such devices to capture high dynamic range (HDR) video. The ...
Modeling Luminance Perception at Absolute Threshold
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
When human luminance perception operates close to its absolute threshold, i. e., the lowest perceivable absolute values, appearance changes substantially compared to common photopic or scotopic vision. In particular, most ...
Unifying Color and Texture Transfer for Predictive Appearance Manipulation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Recent color transfer methods use local information to learn the transformation from a source to an exemplar image, and then transfer this appearance change to a target image. These solutions achieve very successful results ...
Intrinsic Images by Clustering
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)
Decomposing an input image into its intrinsic shading and reflectance components is a long-standing ill-posed problem. We present a novel algorithm that requires no user strokes and works on a single image. Based on simple ...
Per-Vertex Defocus Blur for Stochastic Rasterization
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)
We present user-controllable and plausible defocus blur for a stochastic rasterizer. We modify circle of confusion coefficients per vertex to express more general defocus blur, and show how the method can be applied to ...
A Stylized Approach for Pencil Drawing from Photographs
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)
We present a stylized scheme that produces pencil drawings in a range of styles from an image. To produce controllable pencil drawing effects and remedy the problems of existing convolution-based schemes, we develop a swing ...
