A Full-Wave Reference Simulator for Computing Surface Reflectance

Computing light reflection from rough surfaces is an important topic in computer graphics. Reflection models developed based on geometric optics fail to capture wave effects such as diffraction and interference, while existing models based on physical opti ...

Importance of 3D radiative transfer effects on high-resolution NO2 remote sensing in cities

Marc Damien Schwärzel

Urban air quality is a major concern in the context of human health since cities are at the same time emission hot spots and home to a large fraction of the world's population. Airborne imaging spectrometers may be a valuable addition to traditional air po ...

Practical Product Path Guiding Using Linearly Transformed Cosines

Wenzel Alban Jakob

Path tracing is now the standard method used to generate realistic imagery in many domains, e.g., film, special effects, architecture etc. Path guiding has recently emerged as a powerful strategy to counter the notoriously long computation times required t ...

Radiative Backpropagation: An Adjoint Method for Lightning-Fast Differentiable Rendering

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Sébastien Nicolas Speierer, Merlin Eléazar Nimier-David

Physically based differentiable rendering has recently evolved into a powerful tool for solving inverse problems involving light. Methods in this area perform a differentiable simulation of the physical process of light transport and scattering to estimate ...

Split-pane electrochromic window control based on an embedded photometric device with real-time daylighting computing

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

Well-designed electrochromic (EC) glazing control can improve the energy performance of buildings and visual comfort of occupants in highly glazed buildings. This paper designed and demonstrated a compact integrated EC glazing automation system to control ...

Mitsuba 2: A Retargetable Forward and Inverse Renderer

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Tizian Lucien Zeltner, Delio Aleardo Vicini, Merlin Eléazar Nimier-David

Modern rendering systems are confronted with a dauntingly large and growing set of requirements: in their pursuit of realism, physically based techniques must increasingly account for intricate properties of light, such as its spectral composition or polar ...

Multilayer four-flux matrix model accounting for directional-diffuse light transfers

Roger Hersch, Mathieu Hébert

The four-flux model is a method to solve light radiative-transfer problems in planar, possibly multilayer structures. The light fluxes are modeled as two collimated and two diffuse beams propagating forward and backward perpendicularly to the layer stack. ...

SigCO: Mining Significant Correlations via a Distributed Real-time Computation Engine

Karl Aberer, Jean Paul Calbimonte Perez, Tian Guo, Hao Zhuang

The dramatic rise of time-series data produced in a variety of contexts, such as stock markets, mobile sensing, sensor networks, data centre monitoring, etc., has fuelled the development of large-scale distributed real-time computation systems (e.g., Apach ...

Beyond illumination: An interactive simulation framework for non-visual and perceptual aspects of daylighting performance

Marilyne Andersen, María Lovísa Ámundadóttir, Antoine Guillemin, Siobhan Francois Rockcastle

This paper presents a proof-of-concept for a goal-based simulation structure that could offer design support for daylighting performance aspects beyond conventional ones such as illumination, glare or solar gains. The framework uses a previously establishe ...

Discrete vs continuum level simulation of radiative transfer in semitransparent two-phase media

Sophia Haussener

The mathematical formulation of the continuum approach to radiative transfer modeling in two-phase semi-transparent media is numerically validated by comparing radiative fluxes computed by (i) direct, discrete-scale and (ii) continuum-scale approaches. The ...

Ray tracing study for non-imaging daylight collectors

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Friedrich Linhart, Stephen Wittkopf, Raphaël Compagnon, Lars Oliver Grobe

This paper presents a novel method to study how well non-imaging daylight collectors pipe diffuse daylight into long horizontal funnels for illuminating deep buildings. Forward ray tracing is used to derive luminous intensity distributions curves (LIDC) of ...

Solar radiation modelling for urban environments

Darren Robinson

In this paper we briefly describe three alternative techniques for modelling solar radiation in the urban context. These include the use of: (i) simple morphological parameters as indicators of radiation availability, (ii) a ray-tracing program in conjunct ...

Mental vision : a computer graphics platform for virtual reality, science and education

Achille Peternier

Despite the wide amount of computer graphics frameworks and solutions available for virtual reality, it is still difficult to find a perfect one fitting at the same time the many constraints of research and educational contexts. Advanced functionalities an ...

Kubelka-Munk model for imperfectly diffuse light distribution in paper

Roger Hersch, Lin Yang

Perfectly diffuse light is a fundamental assumption in the Kubelka-Munk (KM) modeL This assumption is, however seldom fulfilled by real media. In this work, we build a bridge between a weakly absorbing medium with an imperfectly diffuse light distribution ...

Augmented reality for non-rigid surfaces

Julien Pilet

Augmented Reality (AR) is the process of integrating virtual elements in reality, often by mixing computer graphics into a live video stream of a real scene. It requires registration of the target object with respect to the cameras. To this end, some appro ...

Geometry-Based Distributed Scene Representation With Omnidirectional Vision Sensors

Pascal Frossard, Ivana Tosic

This paper addresses the problem of efficient representation of scenes captured by distributed omnidirectional vision sensors. We propose a novel geometric model to describe the correlation between different views of a 3-D scene. We first approximate the c ...

Retexturing in the Presence of Complex Illumination and Occlusions

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Julien Pilet

We present a non-rigid registration technique that achieves spatial, photometric, and visibility accuracy. It lets us photo-realistically augment 3D deformable surfaces under complex illumination conditions and in spite of severe occlusions. There are many ...

Holistic Radiation Modelling with a Fast Simplified Radiosity Algorithm

Darren Robinson

The radiant external environment may be described by two hemispheres, above and below the horizontal plane, which are discretised into patches of known solid angle. Occlusions to these patches may be combined and represented as some patch fraction for whic ...
