  2. GI: light path generation image Virtual world

  3. Path precomputation Entry point Exit point

  4. Transfer factors: T(y,i x,o) Entry point y Entry dir i Exit dir o Exit Point x

  5. Having the transfer factors

  6. Having the Transfer factors L(x,o) =  S Lin(y,wi) T(y,ix,o) dwidy • Directional lights or Image Based Lighting: • Linis independent of y • Diffuse surfaces: L(x,o) =  Lin(wi) S T(y,ix,o) dydwi= =  Lin(wi) Tenv(ix,o) dwi L(x) =  S Lin(y) T(y,ix) dwidy

  7. Problems • Exit points: • Vertices of a highly tessellated mesh • Points corresponding to texel centers • Entry points: • Vertices of a highly tessellated mesh • Sampled randomly • No problem if directional lights or environment lighting • Exit directions: • no problem if the scene is diffuse • T is a 4-variate (8-dimensional) function: • how to store? • Simplification: diffuse surfaces + environment lighting requires just 2 variate functions

  8. Storing the Transfer factors • Finite element representation • Pros: compact, good for low frequency illumination • Cons: costly to update • Sampling + interpolation • Pros: easier to update, good for high frequency illumination • Cons: not as compact

  9. Finite-element representation Tenv(ix) T x(i) = NTn bn()

  10. How to computeTm • Find an adjoint basis function set:  bn(w) b*m(w) dw = 1 if m=n, and 0 otherwise T x(i) = NTn bn()// multiply by b*m() T x()b*m(w)dw =  NTnbn()b*m(w)dw = Tm Monte Carlo integration

  11. Monte Carlo preprocess i L b*n(wi) p(i, y,path) 1 K Tn +=  y x Number of samples

  12. Precomputed Radiance Transfer (Sloan02) • Transfer factors for directional illumination • Express directional illumination with adjoint basis functions • Thanks to orthogonality, the exit radiance is: • It requires N rgb transfer factors at each exit points Lin(w) N Ln b*n() L(x) =  Lin(wi) Tenv(ix) dwi = NLnb*n(i)NTmbm(i)dwi =NLn Tn

  13. Principal ComponentAnalysis • M is the mean of the dataset • Bs are the eigenvectors corresponding to the largest eigenvalues of the covariance matrix:  (Tm-M)T  (Tm-M)

  14. PRT results 1 bounce preproc: 12 sec 5 bounce preproc: 172 sec Run time: 466 FPS

  15. Sampling approach to precomputation aided GI • No finite-element representation • Entry-exit point samples are stored directly • Comparison to PRT: • It is easy to update • It does not assume low frequency environment map • Particularly good for point lights that can be close

  16. Preprocessing: Entry points Random sampling

  17. Preprocessing: Transfer from entry to exit points entry point with unit irradiance

  18. Preprocessing: Reference point illumination unit irrad Virtual lights
