We analyse some recent approaches to the global illumination problem by introducing the corresponding reflection operators, and we demonstrate the advantages of a two-pass method....
Global view-dependent illumination phenomena, in particular reflections, greatly enhance the realism of computer-generated imagery. Current interactive rendering methods do not pr...
We describe a global illumination method combining two well known techniques: photon mapping and irradiance caching. The photon mapping method has the advantage of being view inde...

Abstract. We explore the implications of reversing the process of shadow computation for real-time applications that model complex reflectance and lighting (such as that specified ...
Scenes lit with high dynamic range environment maps of real-world environments exhibit all the complex nuances of natural illumination. For applications that need lighting adjustm...
