Monte Carlo Methods for Physically Based Volume Rendering
TimeWednesday, 15 August 20189am - 12:15pm
LocationWest Building, Room 301-305, Vancouver Convention Centre
DescriptionThis
course surveys methods that utilize Monte Carlo integration to simulate
light transport in scenes with participating media. The course is an
extension of a Eurographics 2018 state-of-the-art report and expands on
the details of individual techniques, acceleration data structures, and
other insights relevant to CG practitioners.
Level Advanced
Prerequisites
Familiarity with basic concepts of scene modeling and rendering is
required. A brief overview of the two main background topics - Monte
Carlo integration and radiative transport - is provided.
Intended Audience
This course should be of interest to a wide spectrum of SIGGRAPH
attendees, including students, technical directors, rendering
enthusiasts, and researchers interested in physically based rendering of
scenes with participating media.
