When the shape of an object is known, its appearance is determined by the spatially-varying
reflectance function defined on its surface. Image-based rendering methods that use …

Real-world objects are usually composed of a number of different materials that often show
subtle changes even within a single material. Photorealistic rendering of such objects …

In this paper, we present a new method to recover an approximation of the bidirectional
reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of the surfaces present in a real scene. This is done …

Image‐based representations of an object profit from known geometry. The more accurate
this geometry is known, the better corresponding pixels in the different images can be …

At their lowest level, all rendering algorithms depend on models of local illumination to
define the interplay of light with the surfaces being rendered. These models depend both on …

High quality, physically accurate rendering at interactive rates has widespread application,
but is a daunting task. We attempt to bridge the gap between high-quality offline and …

One of the key ingredients of any physically based rendering system is a detailed
specification characterizing the interaction of light and matter of all materials present in a …

We present a novel method for capturing real-world, spatially-varying surface reflectance
from a small number of object views (k). Our key observation is that a specific target's …

The goal of this paper is to present a practical overview and an implementation guide for
real-time rendering using Bi-directional Reflectance Distribution Functions (BRDFs). This …

In this paper, we present a new method to recover an approximation of the bidirectional
reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of the surfaces present in a real or synthetic scene …
