Volumetric obscurance
Obscurance and Ambient Occlusion (AO) are popular techniques in both film and games that model how ambient light is shadowed. While it is largely a solved problem for static scen...

Reconstructing the indirect light field for global illumination
Stochastic techniques for rendering indirect illumination suffer from noise due to the variance in the integrand. In this paper, we describe a general reconstruction technique tha...

Radiance Scaling for Versatile Surface Enhancement
1 We present a novel technique called Radiance Scaling for the depic-2 tion of surface shape through shading. It adjusts reflected light in-3 tensities in a way dependent on both s...
