Density Control for Photon Maps
The photon map method allows efficient computation of global illumination in general scenes. Individual photon hits, generated using Monte Carlo particle tracing, are stored in the...

Exact Illumination in Polygonal Environments using Vertex Tracing
Abstract. Methods for exact computation of irradiance and form factors associated with polygonal objects have ultimately relied on a formula for a differential area to polygon form...

Direct Ray Tracing of Displacement Mapped Triangles
We present an algorithm for ray tracing displacement maps that requires no additional storage over the base model. Displacement maps are rarely used in ray tracing due to the cost...
