EUROGRAPHICS SYMPOSIUM ON RENDERING 2015 Paper

Beibei Wang, Xiangxu Meng, Tamy Boubekeur – Telecom ParisTech, CNRS Institut Mines-Telecom; Shandong University – “Wavelet Point-Based Global Illumination” – Point-Based Global Illumination (PBGI) is a popular rendering method in special effects and motion picture productions. This algorithm provides a diffuse global illumination solution by caching radiance in a mesh-less hierarchical data structure during a pre-process, while solving for visibility over this cache, at rendering time and for each receiver, using microbuffers, which are localized depth and color buffers inspired from real time rendering environments.
